A 21-year-old man has been remanded in custody after Norfolk Police discovered a cannabis grow at a residential property on Bluebell Road in Norwich, with officers estimating the seized product to be worth more than £200,000.

According to a Norfolk Constabulary statement, officers attended the address on Tuesday 7 July following enquiries and found a cultivation set-up inside the property.

What was found

Inside the property, officers discovered and seized multiple bags of cultivated cannabis that had already been pre-packaged for onward supply.

Police put the estimated street value at more than £200,000 — a figure that suggests commercial-scale production rather than personal use, though valuation methods used in court cases can vary.

A man in his 20s was arrested at the scene and taken to Wymondham Police Investigation Centre for questioning.

Charges and court appearance

Ervin Peposhi, 21, of Bluebell Road, Norwich, was subsequently charged with three offences: producing a controlled Class B drug (cannabis), possession with intent to supply a controlled Class B drug, and possession of a controlled Class A drug (cocaine).

He appeared at Norwich Magistrates' Court on Wednesday 8 July, where he was remanded into custody ahead of a further hearing listed for 5 August 2026.

As with all ongoing criminal proceedings, Peposhi is entitled to the presumption of innocence until proven guilty. The case will now progress through the magistrates' court process before any potential crown court trial.

Residential grows remain a policing priority

The Bluebell Road discovery is the latest in a steady stream of residential cannabis farm raids across the UK, where spare rooms, lofts and outbuildings are converted into cultivation sites linked to organised supply networks.

Norfolk Police have not said whether this operation was linked to wider trafficking, but the pre-packaged nature of the seizure and the £200,000 estimate point towards intent to distribute rather than small-scale home growing.

Cannabis cultivation without a Home Office licence remains illegal throughout England and Wales. Penalties for production and supply can include substantial prison sentences, particularly where large quantities or Class A drugs are involved alongside cannabis.
