Police Warn Welsh Landlords Over Rise in Cannabis Farms
Police in Wales have issued a warning to landlords about a rise in cannabis farms. Dyfed-Powys Police has launched a dedicated operation to target organised crime gangs setting up these farms across Wales.
The National Residential Landlords Association (NRLA) is urging landlords to carry out regular inspections and to be alert to the warning signs of cannabis cultivation. The warning comes amid concerns that organised crime groups are increasingly targeting rental properties for illegal activities.
Letting agents and inventory clerks in Wales are advised to remain vigilant and to look out for any tell-tale signs that may indicate a property is being used as a cannabis farm. Regular property checks and awareness of unusual activity are recommended as preventative measures.
