Morning raids in Bury see two arrested and large cash seizures

This morning (Thursday 12 September) police in Bury executed four simultaneous warrants in Moorside in Bury, as police continue to pursue those involved in drugs supply in our communities.

Two men, aged 25 and 26, were arrested on suspicion of being concerned in the supply of class A. They remain in police custody for questioning.

Police also seized significant quantities of cash believed to be proceeds of crime.

Inspector Kevin Wright from our Bury district said: “Today’s warrants are a culmination of a complex investigation targeting those we suspect are involved in organised crime and drug related activity across Greater Manchester.

“The supply of drugs is destructive to our communities, and we are determined to bring anyone involved to justice.

“We remain steadfast in our commitment to tackling organised crime and working with our partners to ensure our most vulnerable are protected from opportunistic criminals.”
