TWO people have been charged after £3,000 worth of heroin was recovered from a house in Musselburgh yesterday (Thursday).
A 33-year-old man and 30-year-old woman have been charged under the Misuse of Drugs Act following the discovery at an address on the town's Kilwinning Terrace.
They are due to appear in court at a later date.
Inspector Andrew Harborow, from Tranent Police Station, said: “Drug supply and misuse can have a devastating impact of people’s lives and that of the local community.
“We continue to work hard to tackle drug crime in the East Lothian area and are committed to bringing those responsible before the courts.
“I would urge anyone who has concerns about drug supply or activity in their area to contact us immediately.”
To report drug crime, contact Police Scotland via 101, or make an anonymous report to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
