When the time came, they didn’t struggle. Although someone tried to hide in the attic, they found it curled up in the rafters, curled up like a fetus.
Two confused men dressed in shabby clothes, baseball caps and jeans, were led by police from the East Hull marijuana factory, where they are believed to have been living and working.
But before they appeared in the broken door of the abandoned Zetland Arms bar, the pungent smell of marijuana was in front of them. It was hanging in the air before entering the door. When it was opened, the smell poured into the street.
Considered to be Southeast Asians, these people were brought out in handcuffs and sealed in a sultry wooden wine cabinet for an unknown period of time. They blinked at the sun, which seemed to be their home.
When the police used a metal grinder to cut the lock, then broke into and found a huge pot factory, the first sign that their world was about to change drastically appeared.
Residents are suspected to be farmers “employed” to keep the factory running, and have nowhere to go. The rest of the bar, the windows and doors, have been sealed off to prevent snooping, and to try to prevent the police and passers-by from emitting the obvious smell of marijuana.
When the attack occurred, a man was believed to be on the ground floor and was immediately taken out of the bar by the police.
It is believed that the other person appears to have jumped into the attic space and curled up in some futile hope that he may not be found. Only 10 minutes later, when the police rushed into the bar, he was taken out.
The two were completely expressionless, but they did cover their eyes, seeming to react to the sunny morning after being locked in a dark building, where the only light came from the bulbs used to grow marijuana.
Friday’s raid was part of a large-scale operation by Humberside police to smash the Hull marijuana trade in four days. Read more about raids, arrests, and locations here.
It is now common for the police to find men from Southeast Asia (usually Vietnam) at the cannabis farms raided.
After the Humberside police conducted another raid on a large cannabis warehouse factory in Scunthorpe in July 2019, it was discovered that a Vietnamese man found at the scene had been locked in it for two months and could only eat rice. .
