Five men from Mexico have been charged after a meth lab was discovered on remote farmland in North Warwickshire.
The suspects are all accused of conspiracy to produce methamphetamine - a class A drug that is highly addictive and can lead to severe psychosis, a heart attack or a stroke.
It is alleged that the men were part of a crime group manufacturing the drug at a meth lab near the hamlet of Furnace End.
The five men were arrested on 13 August, charged and initially appeared at Coventry Magistrates' Court, where they were remanded to custody. The men are due to appear at Warwickshire Crown Court on Thursday.
The five men are Alejandro Ambriz Dimas, 45, Victora Ramirez, 47, Fausto Beltran, 33, Lioncio Moso Borja, 37, and Jose Nunez Angolo, 44.
The National Crime Agency (NCA), who led the investigation, said that all the men, apart from Dimas, are from Culiacan, in the Sinaloa region of northwest Mexico.
Dima is from Michoacan in southern Mexico.
Alongside the NCA, the operation was assisted by Warwickshire Police, West Midlands Fire Service and West Midlands Ambulance Service.
