    It added no further counterfeit cash was recovered, but a cannabis cultivation kit was seized from the address.

    That could be a bag of compost

    Judging by the comments here its blatantly obvious that the police were clutching at straws here.

    There’s absolutely no reason to bring up the knife at all. It’s such a moot point to make. In this age where police don’t even show up if you call them, you’re making a point about a knife being under the bed?

    Cannabis cultivation kit? …seriously. Not even Cannabis plants…a kit.

    BBC should have just left the story as being about the fake notes.

        A “Rambo Knife”

        It makes you wonder, is a Rambo knife as big as a Crocadile Dundee knoife?

    I didn’t need more reasons to hate taxi drivers but here we are. Scum.
