Police 'ganging up on gangs' to bring down underworld bosses - Manchester Evening News: "Untouchable underworld bosses are being targeted in a major operation to smash organised crime.
Police have teamed up with more than 20 agencies to 'gang up on the gangs' – and attack them at all levels.
The operation is using sophisticated intelligence to identify and take action against seemingly legitimate businesses that are helping dozens of crime syndicates across Salford hide cash generated by drug trafficking, protection rackets and robbery.
Every aspect of the lives of suspected gang bosses – including their business interests, benefits and associates – are being investigated with a fine-toothed comb to disrupt their criminal activities.
And gangsters who have fled abroad are being traced thanks to intelligence-sharing partnerships with European police.
The team is even appealing to the public to shop flash crooks who drive expensive cars and flaunt their money.
Senior officers in Greater Manchester Police said 'pulling on the threads of minor offences' was helping identify and dismantle entire gangs."
