The Criminal Assets Bureau (CAB) are investigating the ownership of three houses, in the South east area of Ireland; one of which is in South Co. Tipperary, which they suspect has been used as a cannabis grow-house.
While investigation are still continuing; as yet, no arrests have been made.
Gardaí believe criminal gang members often rent or purchase property, which is then turned into a cannabis grow-house. Same property is then staffed by poverty stricken illegal Vietnamese immigrants, or other Asian personnel, latter who are placed in these houses as crop tenders to cultivate and reap the drug harvest.
Searches undertaken by CAB, latter targeting private homes and businesses in both Dublin and Laois this morning has been described, as yielding significant information in their on-going investigations targeting organized crime.
