A 21-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of being concerned in the supply of cocaine and MDMA and money laundering. A 34-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of possession of cannabis and being concerned in the supply of cocaine and MDMA.
Both remain in police custody for questioning. The warrant was carried out by GMP's City of Manchester Challenger team and Tactical Aid Unit officers.
Detective Constable Andy Moore, from GMP’s City of Manchester Challenger central team, said: "Today we have made more arrests as we drive out organised drug related crime in Greater Manchester.
"I hope the public, and those we believe are involved in a criminal network, are assured that we’re going to continue to be relentless in our pursuit and I want to encourage the local community to keep reporting information knowing that we will do the rest."
