Three men face charges after $16 million drug haul across Sydney

Three men charged after detectives found 45 litres of liquid meth and crystal meth worth $15.4 million in Glendenning.

Taskforce Falcon detectives charged three men and seized an estimated $16 million worth of drugs following a multi-location operation across western Sydney. On 15 October, strike force detectives executed a search warrant at a Glendenning property and found three buckets containing 45.4 litres of liquid methylamphetamine and 5.6kg of crystal methylamphetamine, worth about $15.4 million on the street.

Police also seized 48 rounds of ammunition. A 38-year-old man was charged with supplying a prohibited drug in amounts greater than large commercial quantities.

On 27 October, further warrants in Rooty Hill and St Clair uncovered about 60 grams of methamphetamine, a firearm, and equipment and chemicals suspected of being used to manufacture illicit drugs. Two more men, both 46, were charged with drug supply and other offences.

All three have been refused bail. The investigation, which started in June 2025, remains ongoing.
