An Auckland woman has been arrested and charged with being a party to arson.
It is related to the suspicious fire that occurred at a Takanini rural property last Thursday where a clandestine P laboratory has been located.
The 20 year-old accused appeared in the Papakura District Court last week, where she was remanded to reappear on Thursday.
