Weed farm discovered in clothing shop

Clothing shop Mika-Bella on the Herengracht in The Hague was discovered to contain a marijuana farm on Friday evening. The 49-year old owner of the building has been apprehended. Police received a tip from a witness who claimed they could smell a very strong marijuana odor. Almost one thousand marijuana plants were found in the building. The owner was using the main power line to tap electricity into the farm. A specialist company had to be called to dismantle that dangerous situation.
