Today (27 April) NCA investigators, suppor
ted by officers from Warwickshire Police, raided the lab housed in farm buildings on Ullenhall Lane, near Redditch.
Members of the organised crime group believed to be running the drugs operation using the encrypted phone network EncroChat – two men aged 40 and 60 – were arrested in Chalfont St Giles in Buckinghamshire.
A third man, aged 50, from Quinton, Birmingham – suspected of operating the lab – was apprehended at his home address.
Two other individuals – a man aged 36 and a woman aged 28 – were arrested at a building on the site.
All five are still in custody being interviewed.
The NCA believes the crime group were producing around one tonne of amphetamine per month – worth £2million at wholesale and up to £10million at street level – for distribution to criminals throughout the country.
