The inspection also found evidence of criminal assets not being seized or being inappropriately returned to suspects
A report highlighting difficulties in tackling serious and organised crime in police forces across the East Midlands has been published. It follows an inspection held by His Majesty's Inspectorate of Constabulary and Fire and Rescue Services , which reviewed the performance of the regional unit, a partnership of five regional police forces including Nottinghamshire Police.
PCC Henry added: “The partnership will continue to get stronger and we will work together, innovatively, to protect the communities of the East Midlands.” Nadia Whittome, the Labour MP for Nottingham East, has expressed her concerns over the overall rating of the East Midlands Special Operations Unit, while also urging that improvements must be made by the force in Nottinghamshire. She added: "Organised crime groups do serious damage to communities, preying on vulnerable people and using violence and intimidation to carry out their activities.
He said that the serious organised crime is a "priority", adding that in 2020, the force has expanded its Operation Reacher offer to provide 12 teams across the city and county to disrupt and dismantle criminal groups. ACC Griffin continued: “Our achievements include more than 2,000 arrests, 4,000 stop searches and 500 search warrants executed.
