Police seized 41 vehicles during a two-day traffic operation earlier this week.
Officers were out in force with partner agencies as part of Operation Unity, which targeted a range of offences on the roads.
Check sites were set up in Gorton, Eastlands, Bolton and Manchester and during the course of the two days 575 vehicles were stopped.
Twelve vehicles were seized for being used illegally in the UK, 24 vehicles were seized for no insurance, two were seized for being driven without a licence and three were seized by the DVLA.
Police also issued 100 Traffic Offence Reports (TORs) to motorists, including 43 to drivers using a mobile phone and 16 for seatbelt offences.
The Drive & Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) issued 55 prohibitions to commercial drivers for vehicle defects.
One vehicle was dealt with for red diesel, six taxi drivers were suspended and a 50-year old man was arrested on suspicion of two robberies in Tameside and remains in police custody for questioning.
Sergeant Garry Lyle from GMP’s Traffic Enforcement Unit said: “Partners and officers came together over the last two days to target offenders and send a stark reminder out to motorists that we will not let them compromise the safety of others on our roads.
“The Traffic Enforcement Unit deals with offences such as these on a daily basis but not to the same extent. We’re really grateful to our partners for assisting us throughout the operation and look forward to doing more of the same in the very near future.”

Here, two ROV soldier part of Army Group E take cover behind a HMMV while taking fire from UFAR forces near the city of Ipoh
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Today, in support of the Philippines, the Republic of Vietnam has invaded the UFAR and has pushed into Malaysia. With the surge of forces across the border and not any major forces in the area as they are fighting in the Philippines, resistance was light. The ROV Army Group E has lead the attack and have reached the city of Ipoh.
In other news, as the war in Europe and the Middle East pick up, ROV leaders are trying to make sure the massive war doesn't leak over into Asia. "This is a European war, lets keep it that way." stated an ROV spokesperson today at the press conference. They also plan on sending delegates to the CMC to not join into the war to try and save Asia from another possible world war.

Police have arrested two people in raids across Wigan today (24/8/10) as part of an operation to crack a major drug dealing gang.
Warrants were executed at five addresses in Golborne and Platt Bridge as part of Operation Delmas.
Led by the North West Regional Crime Unit, the raids were supported by armed officers from Greater Manchester Police’s Tactical Firearms Unit.
The operation is aimed at disrupting a major drug conspiracy that has seen large quantities of cocaine travelling north from London to be sold on the streets of Wigan and the wider North West.

A Victorian special operations task force was assigned to ambush an exchange of radioactive material and capture a high value individual (HVI) codename Panther, a Russian arms dealer.
The tasks were assigned to the TF through drawing straws. The assault team consisted of Team 8, the Squadron Master Chief (Callsign Orca-minor), and two machine gunners from Team 7. The extraction team consisted of Team 55 with Squadron Commander (Callsign Orca-actual), and a fire support section from the Special Operations Regiment. The extraction team are mounted in two GMV, one LAV-FSV, one LAV-ICV, and one HMWV Cargo. The remaining operators from Team 7 in two HH-60 Pave Hawks would be the QRF and positioned at FOB Spade. Video links with the Task Force's TOC, Victoria’s National Command Centre (NCC), United States’ Situation Room and United Kingdom’s COBRA were also setup to monitor the mission on the day of the exchange.
After the AFO teams were inserted, the assault team followed. The assault team would enter the AO by high altitude high opening (HAHO) insertion and patrol in to the exchange site. Just prior to launch, operators from Team 7 assisted their sister team and triple check their parachute and equipment.

This morning (Tuesday 1 February 2022), we executed warrants at six properties in the Chadderton area.
A 25-year-old was arrested on suspicion of rape, sexual assault and trafficking a person within the UK for sexual exploitation.
A second 25-year-old was arrested on suspicion of sexual assault.
A 26-year-old was arrested on suspicion of sexual assault and trafficking a person within the UK for sexual exploitation.
A 27-year-old was arrested on suspicion of rape and trafficking a person within the UK for sexual exploitation.
A 28-year-old was arrested on suspicion of rape and trafficking a person within the UK for sexual exploitation.
The warrants were executed as part of Operation Gabel - an investigation into the child sexual exploitation of two teenage girls in 2012/2013.
Inspector Nick Helme, of GMP's Oldham district, said: "This morning's action at several properties in the Chadderton area was a result of just one of a number of ongoing investigations into historic child sexual exploitation in Greater Manchester.
"I can assure members of the public and warn offenders that investigating this type of crime is a top priority for the force. Regardless of time passed, dedicated teams in a specialist unit leave no stone unturned whilst gathering evidence to make arrests with the intention of bringing suspects to face justice.
"I hope these warrants build public trust and confidence that Greater Manchester Police is committed to fighting, preventing and reducing CSE to keep people safe and care for victims - giving them the faith they need in the force to come forward.

After the Task Force identified that fighters were massing in the Naran Darre mountains, its first objective is to obtain intelligence on the suspected cave complex. Grayhawk's hand-picked team was tasked with close target reconnaissance.
Although the terrain was difficult, the team was able to enter the AO undetected due to Grayhawk’s knowledge of the routes and goat trails in the mountains. The team climbed high into the mountains to conduct environmental reconnaissance.
The recon team confirmed that enemy fighters were present in the area of the suspected cave complex, however, they were unable to observe the size of the complex. The team also identified several HLZs where the assault force could be inserted. This vital intelligence was fed back to the Task Force.

During Operation Blue Moon www.flickr.com/photos/8212187@N05/49182441817/in/datepost..., the Combined Anti-Terrorism Task Force (CATF) captured an Al-Asad financier. Interrogation of the financier revealed that they were in the process of purchasing radioactive material from Panther (a Russian arms dealer name Ulysses Klaue) as the terror group planned to build several dirty bombs to target Victoria, United States and the United Kingdom. He could not provide further details on the location of Panther, but the TF believed the plan was derailed with his capture. The financier, however, did revealed the location of several high value individuals in the network. The CATF began to surveil these individuals.
Several months later, the CATF captured a high value individual through the intelligence obtained from the financier. The HVI confirmed that Al-Asad did indeed had plans to obtain radioactive materials to build several dirty bombs and the plans became dormant since the capture of the financier. However, the plot had recently been revived. Further, the HVI provided the TF with the location where the terror group will be receiving the materials from Panther. The exchange would occur in an area within the Russian sphere of influence and Panther himself would be at the exchange. However, according to the HVI, security would be light since they wanted to avoid drawing any attention at the exchange. It was expected that they would be traveling in civilian vehicles.
The intelligence was shared among allied nations. After a discussion at the highest Government level, it was decided that CATF would be assigned to capture both the radioactive material and the HVT Panther.
A Victorian special operations task force was assigned with the operation. To keep the operation a secret, a task force out of rotation was assigned. After receiving their orders from the Squadron HQ's SCIF, the team commanders immediately gave Warning Orders to their team members and made preparations to depart for Camp Oasis.

To prevent insurgents to move South and infiltrate the local population where they can launch attacks, the Coalition authorized the Task Force to conduct operations to capture high value individuals and fighters. General Miller forward deployed a hand-picked team to a FOB. Lieutenant Commander Whitmore was given tactical command of the team.
After receiving word that the blocking force was in place to funnel insurgents towards his area of operations, Lieutenant Commander Whitmore convened a "Chinese parliament" with his senior non-commissioned officers. After an open discussion, LCdr Whitmore decided to split his team into two 8-man assault elements. One assault element will always be on alert and ready to launch at a moment's notice.

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.”

Wage 48/365.
Wage led the Uglys in a game of operation tonight. Jeero and Ox were a bit disgusted, but the rest of 'em though it was brilliant.
This morning, Thursday 2 February 2017, officers executed warrants at addresses across Miles Platting and Ancoats.
The warrants were executed as part of Operation Rudow a multi-agency operation targeting organised crime and the supply of drugs across Greater Manchester.
Chief Inspector Andy Cunliffe, of GMP’s City of Manchester team, said: "Drugs ruin lives and destroy communities. We will systematically root out and dismantle groups that seek to profit from flooding our streets with drugs.
"Today, we have made arrests after executing warrants across North Manchester.
"By sharing information with our partners, we are better equipped to tackle organised crime and make it impossible for them to profit from it.
"I'd like to thank the community who came forward with information that has proved vital in making this enforcement action a success.
“We still however, need people to come forward with information to prevent people from benefiting from the proceeds of crime at the demise of others. If you know about it, report it.
"Organised crime has no place on the streets of Greater Manchester and we will continue to work tirelessly to remove the scourge of criminal gangs."
Anyone with information should contact police on 101 or Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.
I've just been to see the film Operation Mincemeat this evening, it's well made and worth seeing.
Near the end, it includes a common film-makers' error; a naval officer puts his cap on and salutes, the other two officers salute … but without their caps on. This is never done by members of the British forces but it is done by American troops – so sad.

Yesterday, Wednesday 5 June 2013, over 120 officers from Lancashire, Merseyside, Cheshire and Greater Manchester Police, took part in a day of action to reduce criminality on the roads and improve road safety.
The operation, commanded by Superintendent Thompson and coordinated by Greater Manchester Police, saw vehicle check sites set up in Lancashire, Cheshire and Merseyside force areas, supported by partners from the Environment Agency, Trading Standards, RSPCA, VOSA and HMRC.
