Officers found evidence to suggest the drugs were being imported from London as part of a county lines criminal operation.

“This is another example of how we are taking a proactive approach to tackling county lines drug crime in Rugby,” said Detective Constable Tom Quinlan from Rugby Proactive CID.

“This investigation demonstrates our commitment to finding and prosecuting those involved in this kind of activity, which we know fuels violent across the county,” he added.
