Inp.polri.go.id - Denpasar. Bali Regional Police are searching for a foreign national suspected of supplying cannabis seeds to a hydroponic Cannabis farm uncovered in Denpasar this week.
“The suspect admitted that the seeds came from someone known as Mr. C, who is now on our wanted list. We are investigating his whereabouts and the wider network,” said Bali Police Narcotics Director Senior Superintendent Radiant, on Friday (3/10/2025), as quoted by antaranews.com.
The farm was discovered inside a rented house in Ubung Kaja, North Denpasar, on 1 October 2025. Police arrested a Dutch man, identified as NR (31), as the main suspect, while his Russian wife, KV (33), is being treated as a witness.
Chief Radiant explained the operation was highly organized, with cooling systems, automated irrigation, lighting, fertilization, and CCTV surveillance. Investigators also found scales, suggesting the cannabis was intended for distribution.
