Melbourne police allegedly seize drugs, cash and weapons in raid

Victorian police allege they have smashed a major crime syndicate after seizing drugs, fake IDs and weapons from a house in the Melbourne suburb of Caulfield

Lee Ida has been charged with 30 offences, including possessing the proceeds of crime and drug trafficking, after police raided his home yesterday morning.

Police allege the 30-year-old was the leader of an organized crime ring and say they found the drugs cannabis, ecstasy and MDMA at the property.

Police also allegedly discovered more than $6,000 in cash, a card skimmer, fake IDs and weapons, including a dagger, a sword and nunchaku.

He briefly faced Melbourne Magistrates Court today but did not apply for bail.

Mr Ida will reappear in Moorabbin Magistrates Court on April 14.
