In a coordinated effort to target organised crime, officers from Salford’s Challenger organised crime team and Display Enforcement team, with support from GMP’s Tactical Aid Unit and officers from other districts, conducted a series of early morning raids resulting in the arrest of nine men on suspicion of conspiracy to supply class A drugs.
Codename Operation Display, the initiative follows an extensive investigation into the alleged large-scale county lines drugs supply operating across Salford. Teams from Greater Manchester Police systematically executed warrants across Salford, Gorton, and Oldham under the Misuse of Drugs Act, apprehending those identified as part of this illicit network. Further phases and arrests are planned in the days and weeks following the initial activity.
