Married David Munday, 54, dug out earth to create a den in which he cultivated
thousands of pounds worth of the drug, a court heard.
The dad of one installed ladders and linked the bunker to the mains in his
semi to power lights needed to grow the crop.
Underground ... David Munday's plants
Manchester Evening News Syndication
Cops acting on a tip-off seized 17 plants — street value £8,000 — after
finding the entrance beneath old paving slabs in Salford, Greater
Manchester. DCI Dave Riddick said yesterday: “It must have taken him many
hours to build.”
Munday was convicted of producing a Class B drug and received a 15-week
suspended jail term at Manchester Crown Court. He was also ordered to pay
£13,480 from his assets.
A neighbour said: “He joked he was making a secret garden, but no one had a
clue what type of plants he planned to grow.”
