Police have provided an update on two men who were arrested after a raid at a car dealership in Farnworth.
They raided the car dealership on Lorne Street – Stellar Motors - at around 10am yesterday, Tuesday, April 16.
At the same time they raided two addresses on Brentwood Drive, Farnworth, and on Morris Green Lane, Great Lever, as a part of the same sting.
Today, Wednesday, they provided an update on two men who were arrested on suspicion of money laundering. Both are on bail under investigation.
Inspector Keiron Maddocks, of Greater Manchester Police's (GMP) Bolton South Neighbourhood Team, said: "This operation took around a month to put together and involved more than 40 officers from across GMP. It is a team effort between GMP and the wider community and without them we cannot take the action as we did this week.
"We will always act on information from the public but it may not be immediate as it takes time to plan for action to be taken."
