Police seized about 4kg (8.8lbs) of the drug in Luton on Tuesday in a joint operation between Bedfordshire Police and the Metropolitan Police.

Temporary Det Supt Louisa Glynn, from the Bedfordshire force, said it was a "significant seizure of illegal drugs".

Three people have since been charged with "a range of drugs supply offences following the operation", police said.
