Police have seized HK$63 million worth of cannabis buds in Mai Po, the second biggest seizure of the drug in Hong Kong.

Officers found 280 kg of the drug and arrested a 41-year-old man when they raided a warehouse on Friday.

Officers said they believed the drugs were transported from North America for consumption here.
