Man jailed after officers swoop on cannabis grow

We arrested a man after we discovered a cannabis grow at a property on Regent Road, Hanley, on Sunday 1 October.

 

We attended the address as part of Operation Levidrome, where we continue to proactively target those involved in cannabis cultivation. Nearly 100 cannabis plants were found inside the building.

On Monday 2 October, Gersian Gjoka, aged 21, of no fixed address, appeared at the North Staffordshire Justice Centre, where he pleaded guilty to producing class B cannabis. He was sentenced to six months in prison.
