Dawn raids saw 5 people arrested as part of a crackdown on an organised crime group operating across several areas in England.
This morning (Thursday 16 May 2019) a team of officers executed warrants at 7 addresses in Oldham.
The warrants were executed as part of Operation Hansford – set up by GMP officers to target an organised crime group believed to be involved in crimes committed across England, spanning several force areas- including Greater Manchester, West Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, Derbyshire and Lancashire.
As part of Operation Hansford detectives have investigated 120 offences including aggravated burglary, robbery, car theft, assault, violent disorder and criminal damage – all believed to be orchestrated by the same organised crime group.
Chief Superintendent Neil Evans, GMP’s Territorial Commander with responsibility for Oldham said: “Today we have 5 people in custody and that is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the team here in Oldham, who have worked tirelessly in order to disrupt this organised crime group.
“Today’s action has been supported from officers across GMP; however I would also like to take this opportunity to thank our colleagues from West Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, Derbyshire and Lancashire – all of whom have supported this investigation from the very outset.
“The importance of our investigation and the severity of the crimes committed should not be underestimated. Organised criminal activity destroys people’s livelihoods and blights communities. I hope that today’s action demonstrates to those who have been affected by such criminality just how dedicated we are in bringing those responsible to justice, as well as our absolute commitment to making the streets of Greater Manchester a safer place.
“I would also like to emphasise that Operation Hansford remains very much ongoing.”
Anyone with information should contact police on 101 or the independent charity Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.

Six men have been arrested after raids this morning in Bury and Tameside.
Today (Tuesday 17 October 2017) GMP officers searched a number of properties in Bury, Tameside and Cheetham Hill as part of an investigation into the unlawful sale of medicine and controlled drugs online.
Code-named Operation Pyarr, several million pounds worth of pharmaceutical drugs have been seized in today’s investigation into the multi-million pound international fraud operation.
The investigation has been carried out by the Medicine and Healthcare products Regulatory Authority who are responsible for ensuring that medicines and medical devices are acceptably safe, in conjunction with Bury Police and the Police Service of Northern Ireland.
A total of six men were arrested on suspicion of supplying Class C drugs and remain in police custody for questioning.
Detective Chief Inspector Charlotte Cadden of GMP’s Bury Borough, said: “We have spent the past few months identifying where the public are able to get hold of these controlled drugs, and uncovering who is responsible.
“From our investigation, it is clear that this is a comprehensive operation, with genuine pharmaceuticals being unlawfully removed from the supply chain in the UK and then sold, illegally, online.
“While we have made arrests, we are continuing with our investigation and are committed to finding those who facilitate the supply of illegal substances in Greater Manchester.
“I’m asking for the public to continue to report anything suspicious to the police, and ensure that we can look after the public who are taken in by drugs that they believe are legal.”
Anyone with information should contact police on 101 or the independent charity Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.

In July 2021, the team from Wessex Archaeology reunited with friends from Operation Nightingale (www.gov.uk/guidance/operation-nightingale), a military initiative which uses archaeology to aid in the recovery of ex-service men and women, for Operation Ring Giver on Salisbury Plain.
Veterans and archaeologists convened for the 3-week fieldwork project at what had been intended to be the site for the new Royal Artillery Museum, on MoD land close to Netheravon. The aim of the project was to excavate the Anglo-Saxon cemetery and other archaeological remains at the site, while offering veterans companionship and connection, a sense of wellbeing and the chance to gain new skills.

A massive operation across Rochdale this morning saw 18 organised crime suspects swept to custody as part of an ongoing investigation into a number of violent incidents in the town recently.
Around 100 officers from across the Force targeted 15 addresses in the Rochdale and Heywood areas, where 15 men and two women were detained - the 18th suspect was arrested at Forest Bank prison.
The dozen-plus doors were targeted as part of Operation Chicago - a wide-ranging investigation spearheaded by detectives from the town's Challenger team tackling serious and organised crime.
Investigators have been probing various violent incidents between two feuding groups - including conspiracy to murder, violent disorder, the possession of weapons, and the supply of class A and B drugs.
This includes a machete attack on Bentley Street in October that left a man in his 20s with life-changing injuries.

Police in Bolton have today arrested 15 people in connection with drug dealing in the borough.
This morning’s warrants, which targeted those suspected of selling Class A drugs in the town centre at night time, follow months of intelligence gathering and planning by police in Bolton.
More than 20 raids were carried out in the early hours of Thursday 10 September 2015, in areas across Bolton including Halliwell, Breightmet and Stoneclough, organised by officers from Bolton’s Operation Challenger team, which is a specialist team targeting those involved in organised criminal activity.
More than 200 officers from various units across GMP were involved in the raids, in which 13 men have been arrested on suspicion of being concerned in the supply of drugs. A man and a woman were also arrested on suspicion of possession of cannabis. Another man was arrested on suspicion of obstructing a police officer.
They have been taken into police custody and will be questioned by detectives later today.
Quantities of cannabis and cocaine were recovered from several addresses and a firearm was seized from a property in Halliwell.
Superintendent Andrea Jones from GMP’s Bolton division said: “This morning’s arrests are the result of the community standing shoulder to shoulder with the police to take a strong stance against those involved in drug related activity in Bolton.
“The warrants carried out today are just the first phase of this operation, which will now see us working with local partner agencies including housing, licensing, revenue and customs and other departments to see if people are in breach of local authority housing agreements, benefit fraud, business licenses etc.
“The work of organised crime groups is constantly changing in their attempt to stay ahead of the police, and Operation Challenger sees GMP working together with other agencies to tackle serious and organised crime, so that all aspect of criminals’ lives are targeted, making it much harder for organised crime groups to operate.
“We cannot do this alone though and we need the public’s support to continue to provide us with information about illegal activity in their neighbourhood. I would like to thank our communities across Bolton for their support so far and assure people that this is not just a one off in tackling those blighting our night time economy in the town centre and surrounding areas.”
Programme Challenger was launched in Greater Manchester in 2012 and has become internationally recognised as a good model of effective organised crime policing. The operation has now been launched in Bolton and through collaboration with partner agencies and the general public, Challenger uses various intelligence-led methods to disrupt and dismantle organised crime groups across Bolton and Greater Manchester.
Anyone with information that they wish to pass to the Operation Challenger team in Bolton is asked to contact police on 101 or call Crimestoppers anonymously with information on 0800 555 111.
