THE trial of two Vietnamese men accused of running a large cannabis farm has been delayed.
Lam Hai Vo, 58, and Anh Ta Nguyen, 21, are charged with producing Class B drugs after about 300 plants were found in a bedroom at a property in Baydale Road, Darlington, in May.
Both men deny the allegations.
The trial was halted yesterday (November 7) to allow evidence to be translated from Vietnamese to English, and is expected to resume at Teesside Crown Court tomorrow (Friday).
