Dawn raids saw three people arrested as part of an operation to tackle gun crime and urban street gangs across Manchester

This morning (Wednesday 15 January 2020) a team of officers executed warrants at three addresses in Moss side and Beswick.

The warrants were executed as part of Operation Pallas, an investigation set up by the North West Regional Organised Crime Unit (NWROCU) and supported by Greater Manchester Police’s Operation Challenger into an organised crime group believed to be operating in Rusholme and other areas of central Manchester.

As part of the operation police have seized three firearms; a Brocock Revolver, a Smith and Wesson Magnum, a Walther P22 Self Loading Pistol and a large quantity of ammunition. Four stolen vehicles, cloned registration plates, drugs and bladed weapons were also recovered last year between April and August 2019.

Three men were arrested for conspiracy to possess firearms with intent to endanger life, a further four are also in custody for related offences.

Superintendent Mark Dexter of the city of Manchester district said: “I would like to thank staff from GMP and NWROCU who were involved in making these arrests today.

“We now have a total of seven people in custody due to the strenuous work of our officers and the North West Regional Organised Crime Unit.

“I hope these arrests will reassure residents in Rusholme that we are fully committed to making the streets of Manchester a safer place by disrupting organised crime groups and any child criminal exploitation.For more information about Policing in Greater Manchester please visit our website. www.gmp.police.uk

Today (Thursday 20 2017) GMP and Derbyshire officers searched five homes in Brinnington and Reddish as part of a crackdown on burglaries in the borough.

Code-named Operation Stymie, the warrants formed part of an ongoing investigation into more than 50 burglaries across Stockport and Derbyshire including Marple, Bramhall and Glossop.

It is estimated in excess of £500,000 worth of property, particularly high value cars, has been stolen in the past six months.

The investigation has been carried out by Challenger officers who are dedicated to targeting organised crime in Greater Manchester.

Detective Inspector Chris Flint, of GMP’s Stockport Borough, said: “Over the past six months we have had a dedicated team trawling through intelligence and information about burglaries in Stockport, working hard to catch the culprits.

“Residents were concerned and we understand that crimes like this are an invasion in to your private life and can make people feel scared in their home.

“I want to stress that it is not okay and will never be tolerated by us. I hope people see we listened to those concerns and have acted on them.

“This investigation does not stop here and we will continue to tackle groups who cause misery to innocent people.

“Please continue to report anything suspicious and help us stop people who are benefitting from crime.”

A seized Range Rover is loaded on a trailer.

Officers from Titan and Greater Manchester Police have taken part in raids targeting a £10 million pound money laundering operation.

Police executed warrants at a number of addresses in Cheetham Hill, Salford and Hale Barns, Altrincham, Openshaw, Bolton, Oldham and Sale in the early hours of Tuesday 2 November 2014.

Officers have seized high value cars including Porsches, a Range Rover and a Mercedes, alongside designer handbags and shoes, perfume and a significant amount of cash and laptops.

Seven men and two women aged between 27 and 50 have been arrested on suspicion of international money laundering and remain in police custody for questioning.

This morning’s raids have been part of an eight-month investigation into money laundering by organised crime groups across Europe by officers from Titan, the North West Regional Organised Crime Unit.

Detective Superintendent Jason Hudson, Titan’s head of operations said: "The coordinated arrests come as a result of an extensive and thorough eight month long investigation by my team.

“This investigation into money laundering that has a reach far wider than just Manchester, with criminal operations reaching as far as Paris, and we believe as much as £10 million may have been moved.”

“Along with our colleagues from Greater Manchester Police, HMRC, DWP and also the French Police, we have taken a significant step today in dismantling organised crime groups who are damaging communities with illegal money laundering, and the other crime this funds.

“We have seized a number of high-value cars today, which I hope will show the public that we will and do strip criminals of their assets.

“I send the message to people involved in this type of crime: your actions will eventually catch up with you and we will knock on your door.

"I would urge decent, law-abiding members of the community who have information about criminality where they live to share that information with their local police force or Crimestoppers so that positive action can be taken."

“Additionally, we have a further person in custody for drugs offences.

“These raids came as the result of extensive intelligence gathering and show our determination in dismantling organised crime networks who commit these kinds of crimes.

“Today’s operation is a response to various types of ATM attacks– including those which use gas explosions to access monies, endangering the lives of anyone caught nearby.

“While the vast majority of people in Greater Manchester work hard for their rewards in life, a small minority think it acceptable to try and shortcut their way via acts of criminality.

“We will do everything in our power to catch and prosecute organised criminals whose offending blights our communities.

“If you believe someone to be involved in criminality, contact police immediately. Your actions will help prevent innocent people becoming the victims of crime.”
