Criminal investigators from Ljubljana searched a house in Trbovlje, according to Svet24. They found what the outlet calls a cannabis-growing lab, with over 900 seedlings and cultivation equipment.

Three people were detained: two Serbian citizens aged 32 and 48, and a 41-year-old citizen of Bosnia and Herzegovina. An investigating judge ordered pre-trial detention for all three after hearing them. Police are still collecting information and will report to the competent prosecutor's office. The report does not name them.

Why it matters: The three are held before any charge decision. The outlet's account relies on police information.
