Merseyside gangs who prey on the vulnerable are responsible for the majority of serious crime on the Isle of Man.
Isle of Man Chief Constable Gary Roberts has said the main organised crime threat to the island came from gangs based on Merseyside. Mr Roberts also said drug gangs from the Merseyside area sought to find 'weaknesses' in the methods used by police.
Mr Robert's annual report has revealed how drug gangs from Merseyside have 'befriended' the young and vulnerable to persuade them to accept packages of drugs. The report reveals how the gangs use 'threats and violence' to control the young and vulnerable.
