Eight people have been arrested and 10 addresses in Surrey and Hampshire raided as part of a police operation to disrupt the supply of drugs and money laundering.

Around 50 police officers from Surrey Police and Sussex Police executed search warrants in Farnborough, Frimley, North Camp and Mytchett on Tuesday (13 December).

They also seized large quantities of drugs, cash and offensive weapons.

Senior Investigating Officer, Detective Inspector Lee Hazell, said:

“Today’s operation makes our message clear: we will not tolerate drug dealing in Surrey. We will arrest those that decide to deal drugs in our communities.

“Our focus has always been on keeping Surrey safe, and our work today highlights that.

“If anyone has any information about suspected drug dealing in their area, please contact us.”
