A 23-YEAR-OLD man has been charged in connection with alleged drugs offences after police seized cannabis with an estimated street value of £15,000 from a property in Aberdeenshire.
Officers acting under warrant found the class B drug at an address in the Bleachfield Street area of Huntly at about 3pm on Monday.
The man was arrested and has been released on an undertaking, and police said a report will be submitted to the Procurator Fiscal.

Constable Robyn McKay said: “Recoveries such as this highlight our determination to protect the public from this type of harmful criminality and make communities safer.
“Information from the public is absolutely crucial to our work and we would continue to urge anyone with knowledge or concerns about drugs activity in their area to contact Police Scotland on 101. Alternatively, contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.”
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
