Seized bomb detection equipment

On the 23rd June 2010 officers from the City of London Police investigating the fraudulent selling of bomb and substance detection equipment carried out further searches in Mid-Glamorgan, Wales, Gosport and Hampshire.

The force’s Overseas Anti-Corruption Unit (OACU) carried out search warrants at two residential premises and is interviewing further suspects.

Officers have seized component parts for dozens of detection devices. Suspects were interviewed under caution on suspicion of fraud by false representation and related matters.

The activity is part of the ongoing investigation by the City of London Police’s OACU, a specialist team investigating international corruption and bribery. Officers have previously searched numerous residential premises and business addresses as part of the same investigation.
