Overview
- Police raided a rented house in Spangenberg’s Metzebach on Tuesday, finding a two-floor indoor grow with about 1,100 flowering plants.
- Officers arrested two men, aged 34 and 48, whom a Kassel judge ordered into pre-trial detention pending further investigation.
- Investigators also seized several vacuum bags holding roughly eight kilograms of marijuana packaged for sale.
- The site was fitted with rows of lamps, heaters, fans and a ventilation system, and rooms were sealed from outside view.
