Two men have been arrested in Aylesbury, after police raided the home of a vulnerable person being used for drug dealing.

The 19-year-old from Greenford and 24-year-old from Wycombe were detained after officers found class A and B drugs.

Both have been bailed whilst investigations continue.

The raid happened yesterday (18/03) just after 11am.

TVP officers forced entry into a ‘cuckood’ address within Aylesbury that was believed to be involved in the county line supply of drugs.

Once inside officers located a quantity of class A and class B drugs as well as a substantial quantity of cash.

What is cuckooing?

Dealers often entice the vulnerable person into allowing their home to be used for drug dealing by giving them free drugs or offering to pay for food or utilities.

These organised crime groups are very selective about who they target as ‘cuckoo’ victims.

Often people they target are lonely, isolated, or frequent drug users themselves.
