Brit Bunker Bud

the underground economy

Police in the United Kingdom discovered a large cannabis factory after raiding a nuclear bunker on Thursday. The value of the crop they recovered was estimated at over £1 million ($1.2 million).

Police in the county of Wiltshire say they arrested six people during a midnight raid on RGHQ Chilmark, an underground nuclear bunker built in the 1980s to protect government officials and local dignitaries in case of a nuclear attack.

There are approximately 20 rooms in the building, split over two floors, each 200 ft long and 70 feet wide," Detective Inspector Paul Franklin, of the Dedicated Crime Team said in a statement. "Almost every single room had been converted for the wholesale production of cannabis plants, and there was a large amount of evidence of previous crops. This was an enormous set up."
