Police said they have seized 149 cannabis plants during an operation on the northeastern Aegean island of Samothraki.
Authorities, acting on a tip-off, on Friday discovered two separate farms growing the illegal crop in the area of Varades.
The plants, reaching up to 3 meters in height, were uprooted by officials. There were no reports of arrests.
