Homes, classic cars, firearms, cash, and more than $3 million worth of cannabis plants have all been seized in a large police bust.
Officers searched 23 properties in the Bay of Plenty today in the culmination of a six-month-long investigation, police say.
One hundred and sixty cops searched properties in Taupō, Hamilton and Rotorua in a crackdown on the organised crime syndicate.
Under a High Court order police seized three residential houses, five vehicles, including two classic cars, nine Harley Davidson motorcycles, a jet ski, jewellery, and more than $100,000 cash.
