32CSM members uncover drugs factory

On Tuesday 29th January a number of members of the 32 County Sovereignty Movement in East Tyrone uncovered a huge cannabis factory in the Kildress area. The members were alerted to the drug factory when they recieved a number of complaints of anti social behaviour in this house and the surrounding area.

On entering the premises the republican activists found a huge amount of cannabis in various stages of growth as well as assorted parapenalia for its cultivation such as vents, heaters and a sprinkler system.

The 32 CSM members took a local priest along in order to witness them uncovering the drugs haul and to leave him to do with that knowledge as he saw fit.

The discovery of such a huge operation by the 32CSM has undoubtedly helped in the fight against criminality and drugs in this rural area and we commend our members for their actions. We also urge anyone with information on drug dealing and anti social behaviour to contact the 32 County Sovereignty Movement.
