Police have discovered class B drugs with a street value of around £150,000 in south Belfast.
The drugs were uncovered during the search of a vehicle and a property on Tuesday evening, 27 April.
Two men have been arrested on suspicion of committing drugs offences.
The 35 year old has been further arrested in connection with the seizure of class B controlled drugs with an estimated street value of £675,000 relating to a joint PSNI/Border Force operation earlier this year.

Both men remain in custody at this time.
Detective Inspector Kelly, from the Organised Crime Unit, said: "The public can be assured of our ongoing commitment to tackle the illegal supply and use of drugs. We will continue to investigate those who profit from, and care nothing for, the misery that drugs bring to individuals, their families and communities.
"I would appeal to anyone with information, no matter how insignificant it may seem, about the supply of illegal drugs to contact police immediately on the non-emergency number 101."
