This was followed by an investigation that has been going on since May 2024, which developed from several information from the population.

searches and arrests

The suspicion that an indoor cannabis plantation was operated in the house was confirmed in the course of the investigation. At the request of the public prosecutor's office in Aurich, judicial search resolutions were obtained that concerned both the single -family house and the living addresses of five suspects that come from Bremen, Hamburg and Edewecht.

During the search, however, four Albanian citizens between the ages of 21 and 26 were arrested, which were not the originally suspect. These men had no permanent residence in Germany and were on the property at the time.

The scope of cannabis production

The search was confirmed by the suspicion of a professional indoor system. A total of around 700 cannabis plants could be ensured in various ripening stages. The house had been modified comprehensively to enable the cultivation and processing of the plants. In addition, a car was ensured that was used for the activities.

The police officers received support from Delmenhorst police, the Wildeshausen police and a service dog handler from Oldenburg.

Cash amounts in the four -digit range, small quantities of marijuana and a shotgun were secured.
