The raid happened in Queens Walk, Fletton yesterday (Wednesday).

The officers found a small amount of class B drugs in the home - but also a large stash of swords, knives and other blades.

A police spokesman said; “A tough ban on a wide range of knives, weapons and firearms came into force in April this year making it not only illegal to be found in public carrying one, but also possessing one in your own home.
