Two men have been arrested after drugs worth around \u00a310m were discovered in a police raid in Glasgow.<\/p>\n

Officers executed a warrant at an address on Balintore Street in the Shettleston area of the city on Sunday morning, recovering a significant quantity of cocaine, as well as a quantity of heroin.<\/p>\n

The two men, aged 43 and 22, have been arrested and charged in connection. They are due to appear at Glasgow Sheriff Court on Monday.<\/p>\n

Police say further enquiries remain ongoing.<\/p>\n

This latest high-value recovery comes after a record week of seizures totalling almost \u00a314m across the country.<\/p>\n

Assistant Chief Constable Stuart Houston said: \u201cDrugs cause nothing but misery in our communities and we are dedicated to disrupting the activities of those involved in their supply.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is one of the largest drugs recoveries ever made in Scotland and comes off the back of a number of other major seizures throughout December.<\/p>\n

\u201cSignificant recoveries such as this highlights how taking drugs off the streets is a priority for Police Scotland, and further underlines our commitment to the Serious Organised Crime Taskforce and the country\u2019s Serious Organised Crime Strategy.<\/p>\n

\u201cInformation from the public is the lifeblood which helps us recover illegal drugs and to identify those involved in their supply.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnyone with information or concerns about drugs should contact us via 101 or make a call to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.\u201d<\/p>\n
