As part of a specialized operation, today the police broke up a drug greenhouse with more than a thousand hemp plants in a house located in the Evksinograd area near Varna.

Commissioner Iliyan Iliev, head of the "Security Police" department, specified that the building was rented.

Eight rooms were found to be equipped with high-tech equipment for growing the plants.

One room was used for drying them, and another - for storing the finished product.

In this case, a 33-year-old man from Varna was arrested, with criminal convictions.

His mother was also detained, and it is yet to be established whether she was complicit in the crime committed.

Work on the case continues.
