Police Implement Stop and Search on Bonfire Night in Edinburgh

In response to rising concerns about disorder on Bonfire Night, police in Edinburgh are deploying stop and search powers in areas such as Gracemount, Moredun, and Niddrie. This follows violent incidents during Halloween that left a police officer injured and public transport vehicles damaged. Control zones prohibiting fireworks will remain in effect until November 10. Officers, acting on credible intelligence, aim to prevent firework-related anti-social behavior, searching individuals believed to be involved in such activities. Last week, authorities confiscated fireworks and fuel during a property raid amid heightened tensions.
