North Belfast Searches Connected To UDA Criminality
The Paramilitary Crime Task Force have conducted a search operation on north Belfast as part of an ongoing investigation into suspected criminality linked to the West Belfast UDA.
A quantity of cash was seized along with a number of mobile phones, which were removed for forensic examination.
Detective Inspector Corrigan said: "(The) searches reflect our ongoing commitment to safeguarding local people.
"We will continue to work with our partners in the Paramilitary Crime Task Force to disrupt the activities of those who make their living from crime. They use a regime of fear to exercise control over the most vulnerable in our society, and care nothing about the lives ruined along the way.
"I'm keen to thank communities for their continued support, and would encourage anyone with information regarding criminal activity to contact us on 101."
Information can also be provided to Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 or online at www.crimestoppers-uk.org
