Police raids net illegal drugs

Northern Territory police say they have seized about $350,000 worth of illegal drugs in the past week.

In separate raids on three laboratories and two vehicles, police allegedly found 12.5 kilograms of cannabis, six cannabis plants, 65 kilograms of kava and $90,000 in cash.

In the most recent bust yesterday, members of the drug squad believe they found a permanent drug lab in the bedroom cupboard of a home in Tiwi.

A 48-year-old man was arrested and charged with several drug offences.
