Drugs worth a combined £140,000 have been recovered after a car was stopped on the A9 near Inverness yesterday evening.
Two men - both aged 19-years-old - have been charged and are expected to appear at Inverness Sheriff Court later today.
Detective Inspector Peter Mackenzie said: "We are committed to tackling the supply of controlled drugs and pro-actively targeting those individuals intent on causing damage to our local communities.
"Tackling the misuse of drugs in the Highlands cannot happen without the invaluable support we receive from the public who do not tolerate drugs or the harm they cause.
"Anyone with concerns or information about drugs is urged to contact Police Scotland at any time on 101 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111."
