Two arrests as Bentley, bags of cash and 'counterfeit goods' seized in blitz on money laundering

A Bentley, jewellery and luxury goods have all been seized by cops in a crackdown on money laundering in Greater Manchester. Two arrests have been made following dawn raids in Cheetham Hill and Prestwich this morning (May 16).

Greater Manchester Police says its Money Laundering Team executed coordinated warrants on three properties and commercial premises. The swoop is part of a lengthy, intelligence-led operation to disrupt and dismantle suspected organised criminal finances, GMP says.

Two men, aged 50 and 48, were arrested on suspicion of money laundering and being concerned in the production of cannabis. They remain in custody for questioning this evening.
