On 17 August, officers from the High Wycombe Stronghold team received reports around a potential cannabis factory at an address in Hughenden Avenue, High Wycombe.
They found Malotaj at the property, along with a cannabis factory with over 50 plants being cultivated.
He was arrested and charged the following day.
The plants were seized and destroyed.
Investigating officer PC James Carey, based at High Wycombe, said:
“We will continue to disrupt large scale drug supply within High Wycombe and I hope that this serves as a reminder to those who seek to involve themselves in such criminal activity that it is only a matter of time before the Stronghold team in Wycombe catch up with you.
“I would also like to thank the public for the information they supply to us. That information is vital for us to gather intelligence and take action against criminal activity.
“You can report online through 101 or if a crime is in progress please call 999. Or if you do not wish to talk to the police you can speak to the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111. The information you provide could help us tackle criminals but you will not be identified and you will not have to attend court.”
