Drugs Warrant and Closure Order Under planning

Drugs Warrant and Closure Order Under planning

I wanted to provide an update regarding drug dealing / drug use, which some members around this area have highlighted as an issue of concern on the Met Engage priority survey.

Officers from your local team, TOLLINGTON SNT are currently planning a search warrant and closure order for an address that is a major source of drugs activity in the area.

What is a closure order? This is a power that criminalises entering and being present at an address. This, when combined with ending tenancies of individuals is a police, is a way of forcing out the individuals causing these problems and is usually highly effective in reducing drugs issues in the area.

Stay tuned, we will have more information to follow!
