MORE than three-quarters of a million pounds worth of cannabis has been discovered in Glasgow.
Officers carrying out an intelligence-led raid searched a property in Coxhill Street in Springburn where they discovered the huge haul.
The cultivation is thought to have a street value of £763,000.
Two men, aged 46 and 33, have been arrested and charged in connection with the recovery, which took place earlier today.
They are both expected to appear at Glasgow Sheriff Court tomorrow.

Detective Inspector Craig McPhail of Glasgow's Serious and Organised Crime Pro-Active Team said: "We are committed to tackling serious and organised crime in Glasgow at all levels and will continue to use every tactic at our disposal to pursue everyone suspected of involvement in the drug trade.
"Recoveries such as this are only possible with the support of local communities who do not tolerate drugs on their streets.
"We are grateful for the support we have from members of the public who provide vital information allowing us to act.
"I would urge anyone with information or concerns to contact police on 101 at any time, or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111."
