£100k Cash Haul in Major Anti-Money Laundering Sting!
Big Bust in Oldham
Police pulled off a midnight jackpot yesterday, seizing a whopping £100,000 in cash during a targeted crackdown on organised crime and money laundering.
At around 11.30pm on 11 July, GMP’s Money Laundering Team and Specialist Operations stopped a vehicle in Oldham. A 29-year-old man was promptly arrested on suspicion of money laundering.
Operation Falcon Strikes Again
The car search uncovered the huge cash stash stuffed into a bag. This haul is part of Operation Falcon, a sharp new initiative launched just a month ago to tackle money laundering networks across Greater Manchester.
Cracking Down on Crime
- Operation Falcon aims to hunt down money launderers and disrupt wider organised crime.
- So far, four arrests have been made.
- The team has already seized over £320,000 in illicit funds.
With this latest swoop, GMP is hitting criminals where it hurts – right in the wallet.
