Two people have been charged after police uncovered a 100-plant cannabis factory in Maple Cross.
A warrant was executed in Chalfont Road shortly before 7.30pm on Saturday (31 May), which involved officers from Watford, Three Rivers and an Operational Support Group.
The bust came after police received a tip-off suggesting the property was being used to grow class B drugs.
Arlind Voka, 26, and Gjergj Voka, 28, both of Chalfont Road, have both been charged with the cultivation of cannabis and remanded in custody after appearing at Hatfield Remand Court yesterday (June 2).

Detective Constable Laura Wilks, from the Three Rivers Local Crime Unit, said: “We are pleased to have secured charges in relation to this case and our investigation is continuing. This is a great example of how important information from the public is when it comes to helping us crack down on suspected drug crime.
“Some may see it as ‘just a little bit of cannabis’ but we’d urge them to see the bigger picture: it’s often linked to serious organised crime and the exploitation of vulnerable people, which we are committed to tackling.”
Information can be reported to police via non-emergency number 101 or the force’s website.
