A PSNI spokeswoman said: “Whilst the value of the drugs was initially thought to be in the region of £600,000, further examination of the scene on the Limestone Road and the seized cannabis plants has brought the approximate estimated street value to more than £1.5m”.
The man is due to appear before Belfast Magistrates’ Court on Monday.
