Two
further success stories from Officers working in Wakefield District
using Proceeds of crime from last week:
A
21 year old male from Lupsett was convicted of a drugs offence
and he had £260 confiscated from him. In another case
a 23 year old man from the Eastmoor district was also convicted
of Possession of drugs with intent to supply and £1500
was confiscated from him under the same legislation.
That's why
communities throughout the country will be coming together to
do something about it. If you know of someone who might be living
off the proceeds of crime call Crimestoppers on

That's
all it takes
