Two local women (both aged 45) and one local man (aged 47) have been arrested on the suspicion of fraud and money laundering offences. 

The arrests followed a report received regarding one of the women having abused her position within a local establishment to issue unauthorised refunds amounting to just over £8,000. 

The arrests were effected this morning by RGP Response Team officers and detectives from the RGP’s Economic Crime Unit, and included search warrants executed at three residential properties.
