Police target cannabis factories
The Independent – Independent – Sep 25, 2006
These include the windows of a property being permanently covered, gardening equipment left outside or a pungent smell emanating from inside. Earlier this year, police in London began using thermal imaging cameras to reveal the locations of secret cannabis factories. The hand-held devices detect the extreme heat caused by the lighting systems used in the intensive rearing of marijuana plants. Properties where cannabis is being grown will release ten times the amount of heat of an ordinary family home. Each is capable of producing hundreds of thousands of pounds worth of cannabis a year. A total of 19 police forces are taking part in the crackdown including Cambridgeshire, Essex, Greater Manchester, Hampshire, Hertfordshire, Kent, Merseyside, Norfolk, Northumbria, North Yorkshire, Nottinghamshire, South Wales, South Yorkshire, Surrey, Sussex, West Yorkshire, Wiltshire and the Metropolitan Police. The operation, code name Keymer, runs until October 5.
