Detective Constable Ross Hay, North East Division CID Proactive, said: "We remain committed to taking appropriate action against people profiting from the sale of illegal and harmful substances.

"Our partnership approach means that in addition to addressing drug related criminality, we also work with communities and partners to support individuals impacted by substance misuse and deal with other issues that result from individuals and groups involved in the supply of controlled drugs.

"Our work relies on information provided by members of the community, so we encourage anyone with concerns about drugs in their area to contact us on 101, or report anonymously via Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111."
