Police in Varna [on the Black Sea coast] have uncovered a drug greenhouse, the Interior Ministry's Varna Directorate said on Saturday. 

Inside the house, forensic experts found three rooms adapted as greenhouses, equipped with a humidity and temperature control system, ventilation and 600 plants in various stages of growth. Officers found and seized dried weed and a large electronic scale.

The total value of the confiscated equipment and the prepared dry, green herbaceous mass was over BGN 120,000.

The offender, who is a foreign national and in whose country drug offences are punishable by a life sentence, was remanded in custody for 24 hours. 

Actions to document the criminal activity continue under the supervision of the Regional Prosecution Office. Currently, a pre-trial procedure has been initiated in the case.
