Undercover officers target Island's licensed premises
Nineteen people from the Isle of Man have been charged with drug offences as part of a police initiative targeting the supply of Class A drugs in the nighttime economy.
Undercover officers targeted those dealing, predominantly in or around licensed premises, between July and November last year.
As a result of ‘Operation Nightjar’, and the covert evidence gathered, they were then arrested - between 30 January and 8 February this year - on suspicion of offences under the Misuse of Drugs Act.
A number of cases are now being taken through the criminal justice system.
