A PENSIONER from Wormley has been arrested on suspicion of cultivating cannabis plants.

Acting on a tip-off, Surrey Police officers seized 42 suspected cannabis plants and arrested a 75-year-old man at a house off Culmer Lane around 7.30pm, on March 7.

Officers carried out the raid under the Misuse of Drugs Act and the plants were taken to Woking Police Station and sent off for further analysis.

The man who was arrested on suspicion of culivating class B drugs has been released on police bail until April 25, while the investigation continues.
