Here’s a quick update on drugs dealing crime in your area, please be reassured that we’re taking this seriously and are here to help. Community Update – Positive Action Taken
We are pleased to share some positive news with the community. Acting on information provided by local residents, officers recently executed a drug search warrant at an address on Great Down Road, Hanwell. During the operation, officers recovered seven wraps of suspected Class A drugs, along with a number of other items which are now being examined as part of the ongoing investigation.
As a result of the warrant, two males were arrested on suspicion of Possession with Intent to Supply Class A drugs. They have since been bailed pending further enquiries.
We would like to thank local residents for the information, intelligence, and support provided to police. Your reports have been instrumental in helping us take action against criminality and address concerns affecting the neighbourhood.
As part of our continued work to improve the area and reduce anti-social behaviour, we are seeking a Closure Order for the address. Community evidence is vital in helping us demonstrate the impact that the activity associated with this property has had on residents and the wider community.
If you have been affected by anti-social behaviour linked to this address, witnessed incidents, or experienced nuisance, intimidation, or disorder connected to the property, we encourage you to come forward and provide a statement. Your support could play an important role in securing the Closure Order and preventing further issues.
We remain committed to listening to residents, tackling drug-related crime, and making Hanwell a safer place for everyone. Thank you once again for your continued support and cooperation.
If you have been affected and would like to provide evidence in support of the Closure Order, please contact your local neighbourhood policing team or the investigating officer.
 Drug dealing is often linked with violent crime and the exploitation of vulnerable people, and discarded drug equipment can be a health risk and counts as antisocial behaviour. We’ve put hundreds more officers on the frontlines of community crime-fighting teams, upping visible patrols in the right ‘hot spots’ so we can deter and catch criminals. We are committed to tackling drug dealing wherever we find it. It forms a key part of our recently published ASB Action Plan. We will keep you updated on our efforts to do this in your area, but if you have any concerns or evidence, it is important you report this as soon as possible. If you have experienced drug dealing in your area, please report it using our online reporting tools at https://www.met.police.uk or call the non-emergency number 101. Alternatively, you can stay 100% anonymous by contacting the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 or via their untraceable online form at www.crimestoppers-uk.org |
