Three arrests have been made following a police investigation into drug trafficking in the North East.
Yesterday morning saw officers raid a number of properties both in Birmingham and the nearby town of Bromsgrove.
The joint operation between Police Scotland and the West Midlands and West Mercia forces also uncovered a large amount of drugs.
Quantities of cocaine, crack cocaine and cannabis were seized, with a combined estimated street value of around £64,000.
Two men, aged 33 and 34, were arrested alongside a 27-year-old woman.
All three people are due to appear at Aberdeen Sheriff Court tomorrow.
Detective Inspector Andrew Machray, of North East Division CID, said: "I would like to thank our colleagues at West Midlands and West Mercia Police for assisting with this operation.
"Our partnership approach shows our commitment to disrupting those involved in operating and profiting from the sale of illegal and harmful substances.
"We will continue to tackle the exploitation of vulnerable members of our communities in the North East of Scotland.
"If anyone has any concerns regarding the abuse of controlled drugs, or anyone who may be involved in the supply of controlled drugs, please contact the police on 101 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111."
