Police targeted the home of a vulnerable 99-year-old great, great grandmother after ‘intelligence’ led them to fear she was living in a cannabis den.
Merseyside Police searched her home over concerns - partly inspired by analysis of how warm it was - it had been taken over by a drugs gang.
The force said extensive efforts were made to be as sensitive as possible. But the woman’s family have questioned how much due diligence was carried out and revealed they thought she had died when remote cameras alerted them to emergency services attending the property.
