■ Detective InspectorAnthony Vella, Clandestine Laboratory Squad, said: “These arrests are an excellent outcome for community safety - these are significant seizures from what is one of the largest and most complex clandestine laboratories we have seen in Victoria. “Drugs are a significant driver of crime and community harm across the state and are a strong focus for Victoria Police. “These arrests should serve as a sobering reminder to those engaged in the manufacture of illicit substances - you will be targeted and arrested. “Illicit drug labs pose significant health and safety risks to the community and many of the chemicals involved in drug manufacture are highly volatile, explosive or carcinogenic in nature. “Residual contamination resulting from the manufacture of these illicit substances presents a serious risk to human and environmental health.”
