Three people appeared in court on Wednesday following a raid on a clandestine methamphetamine laboratory in the upmarket Auckland suburb of Remuera on Tuesday, close to the home of city mayor John Banks.
Phan Phu Pham, 36, Lan Mai Thi Pham, 30, and Tuan Anh Huynh, 27, appeared in Auckland District Court today charged with possession for supply of methamphetamine.
Phan Pham was remanded in custody, while the other two were granted bail.
Police say the scene examination was expected to continue for the next few days. Some stolen electrical equipment was still at the scene.
Police say the lab was being operated when officers burst into the house about 7.30am.
Banks says the lab shows that the methamphetamine drug P is reaching all levels of society.
"Methamphetamine and its evilness could come to your family today, tomorrow, next week," he said.
"It is a war we need to fight on all fronts."
Meanwhile, the owner of the townhouse says she is devastated by the damage caused by the drug making.
The scene examination is expected to continue over the next few
days.
