Met Police Speak Out
Commander McLaren from the Met’s Specialist Crime Command said:
“This shows just how far criminals go to hide drug trafficking from police. But we’re always one step ahead to keep these harmful substances off our streets.”
“Drugs are a key driver of violent crime. By seizing this haul, we’ve dealt a major blow to organised drug networks.”
