Police Scotland Launches Operation Silhouette Against Organised Crime
In a coordinated effort, Police Scotland conducted dawn raids in East Renfrewshire, resulting in 36 arrests connected to a newly identified organised crime group. Operation Silhouette has led to the seizure of £6 million worth of cocaine and cannabis, alongside £1.5 million in cash. The operation involved over a hundred officers across multiple divisions and highlights ongoing challenges in combating drug-related crimes in Scotland, where drug deaths remain alarmingly high.
