Police swoop on homes in drugs raid

POLICE raided three addresses in Bexhill and one in Hastings earlier this week as part of an ongoing operation to combat drug dealing and money laundering.

Plain clothes and uniform officers, supported by a dog unit, entered a bungalow in Barrack Road, Bexhill, on Tuesday morning.

Similar raids under the Police and Criminal Evidence Act took place in The Barnhams and Winston Drive, Bexhill.

And at St Helen's Road, Hastings, a warrant was executed under the Misuse of Drugs Act, leading to the arrest of one man outside the property. He was later released on bail until July 6 pending further enquiries.

A second man attended Hastings police station voluntarily for interview. He later left without charge and is not on bail.

Detectives from the Sussex Police Money Laundering Investigation Unit seized documents and computer material at all four addresses.
