A man has appeared in court after cannabis said to be worth more than £500,000 was discovered in Peterhead.

The cultivation - which had an estimated value of around £587,250 - was found on Sunday inside a building in the Aberdeenshire town's Narrow Lane.

Kaspars Kreipans, 42, appeared at Peterhead Sheriff Court on Monday. He made no plea and was remanded in custody.

Det Con Doug Morrison urged anyone with information about drugs in their community to contact Police Scotland.
