Further action on bomb
detectors
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.
