TWO men accused of growing cannabis will appear in court today.

Hung Van Nguyen, 18 and Dung Van-Bui, 25 - both of who have not given an address to police - were arrested in Eldon Way, Hockley on Thursday.

It follows the alleged discovery of 2,500 cannabis plants.

The pair will face a charge of being concerned in the production of a controlled Class B drug when they appear at Southend Magistrates' Court.
