“Europol said that the criminals were using an illegal tap-in to the electricity supply to power the lighting for the cannabis farms. They said the total electricity stolen amounted to €1.6 million in lost utility revenue.”

Wasn’t that last big bust in Spain last year tipped off from stolen power usage, too? Seems like there could be a lesson to be learned here…

Timing is certainly concerning
