A suspect has appeared in court charged in connection with a cannabis cultivation near Ramsgate.

During the afternoon of Monday 13 September 2021, officers from the Thanet Multi-agency Task Force (Thanet MTF) attended the premises in Telegraph Hill, Minster, following a report of suspicious activity in the area.

Within the unit, an internal structure was found which housed 102 young cannabis plants, growing equipment and living accommodation.

The 37-year-old from Minster was charged with being concerned in the production of cannabis, possessing a false identity document, and dishonestly using electricity.

He appeared at Folkestone Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday 15 September where he was remanded in custody. The case will next be heard at Canterbury Crown Court on a date to be confirmed.
