Police have charged three Croydon men after discovering a huge £1.6m haul of suspected cocaine at a house in Caterham.

Detectives found the 33kg stash during a raid in Croydon Road on Thursday last week.

Nexhip Shehi, 27, of Brighton Road, South Croydon, Athanasios Anastopoulos, 28, of Green Lane, Norbury, and Vladamir Palushi, 26, of Whitstable Place, South Croydon, were among six people charged on Friday with possession of a class A drug with intent to supply.

Bib Gjegjaj, 27, of no fixed abode, Dorjan Ramaj, 24, of Chiswick, and Rezart Lepuri, 42, of Shepherds Bush, face the same charge. 

All six have been remanded in custody to appear at Guildford Crown Court on March 26.

The arrests followed an investigation by Surrey Police and the National Crime Agency, which probes serious organised crime.
