No one was arrested at the address on Milcote Street, Southwark but Officers found a large quantity of pills at the address.

One man, aged 34, was arrested at address in Cranborne Close and a 54-year-old woman was arrested at West Way, Moggerhanger, both in Bedford.

They were both arrested for conspiracy to supply cocaine.

Detective Sergeant John Cowell, from the Specialist Crime Command, said: “The arrests made this morning will have a positive impact on dismantling this organised crime group (OCG) we are confident are involved in the supply of Class A drugs.

“The supply of Class A drugs is the fuel for violent crime that officers from the Met are committed to tackling. It remains our top priority.”
