Bruv, the feds kicked down a door on Pinfold Avenue and what did they find? Over 300 cannabis plants, innit. Minas Ilias, a 20-year-old roadman with no fixed address, is in deep water now. The old bill swooped on the property Saturday, seizing the plants along with some gear and cash.
Ilias found himself in front of North Staffordshire Justice Centre yesterday, charged with producing class B and criminal property offences. The court didn’t mess around – he’s been banged up until his next hearing at Stoke-on-Trent Crown Court, date TBC. Looks like this grow op is done for it, fam.
Staffordshire Police are tight-lipped but confirm the remand. This ain’t no small fry operation, with the scale of plants and cash involved, it’s a proper mad ting.
