POLICE have detained four men after uncovering £750,000 worth of cannabis being cultivated in a derelict factory.
Officers from Strathclyde Police found more than 2500 plants on a disused industrial estate in Woodilee Road, Kirkintilloch, yesterday.
Police described the breakthrough after a tip-off as a "significant cannabis cultivation".
It came after police discovered a kilo of cocaine, worth £100,000, in unconnected raids on two properties in the East Dunbartonshire town on Wednesday.
