So far, Cllr Chowdhury feels it has been a success: We re making progress. Since the operation began, 30 Community Protection warnings and notices have been issued, whilst five rough sleepers have been referred for support and shelter.
Was a pleasure to join our Multi-Agency Tasking Team last week as officers deployed for Operation Raptor to tackle organised begging gangs.
30 Community Protection Warnings & Notices issued, whilst 5 rough sleepers referred for support & shelter.
Community Protection Notices (CPN) are imposed against those who engage in persistent antisocial behaviour.
These notices are intended to deter possible organised begging gangs from operating in Redbridge.
This is the initial action, said Cllr Chowdhury, who stresses that the council will take things further if necessary.

Anti-social drivers turned a Somerset airfield into an unauthorised racetrack.
Police cleared the makeshift track at Weston Airfield in April after receiving complaints from members of the public in relation to vehicle nuisance.
A Public Space Protection Order was also issued for the airfield, making it illegal for motorists to rev engines, perform stunts or drive in an unreasonable manner in the area.

Cambridgeshire’s Rural Crime Team continue their crack down on hare coursers after recording their best results in six years.
Over the past year (April 2020 to March 2021) the team haa responded to 1,196 incidents of hare coursing, a reduction of 16 per cent from the previous year and the lowest since 2014/15.
They have seized 93 vehicles, issued 138 Community Protection Warnings, issued 17 Community Protection Notices, issued 165 dispersal notices and seized and rescued 20 dogs. A further 23 people have been summoned to court.
The hare coursing season traditionally begins in September when the fields have been harvested and ploughed making them the perfect ground for the illegal blood sport.
