The Albanian caught in the "bari house" is sentenced to prison and

An Albanian migrant who traveled to the UK on a dinghy has been jailed after being found tending a £63,000 cannabis farm.

Arbi Koldashi, 41, was caught farming the farm in South Kirkby, Wakefield, West Yorkshire, as he said, to raise money to pay off a £10,000 debt owed to smugglers who helped bring him to Britain.

Police raided the house and found Koldash tending to more than 140 plants, Leeds Crown Court was told.

Koldashi opened the door and was alone inside the house. Officers found four rooms containing an array of lights and transformers.

There were 60 full-grown plants and 85 seedlings inside, and the electricity was bypassed to prevent detection of the amount of energy used to grow the plants.

He said he was working to pay off the debt he owed to traffickers who brought him across the sea in a dinghy two years ago.

Koldashi, i cili nuk ka asnjë dënim të mëparshëm, u dënua me 20 muaj burg pasi pranoi akuzën e prodhimit të kanabisit dhe do të depërtohet pas shlyerjes së dënimit.
