Metropolitan Police officers have arrested four men on suspicion of drug offences following an operation earlier this month that targeted suspected drug dealing in unoccupied flats at Corfe Tower in South Acton.
The arrests were made on 6 November 2025 after South Acton’s dedicated ward officers carried out patrols in response to intelligence about drug activity in the tower block. Officers PC Naja and PC Cooper, supported by Southfields officers PC Dale and PC Atherley, then entered a flat identified through police intelligence as a suspected hub for drug activity.
Inside, officers found four men and what police described as “strong evidence” of drug use and supply involving Class B substances. All four were arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply.
Searches under Section 18 of the Police and Criminal Evidence Act were later authorised at several connected addresses and vehicles. Police said multiple items of relevance to the investigation were recovered. The operation was supported by emergency response and patrol team officers.
Jessica Domingos Morais, a police community support officer for Southfield, said the Met was committed to tackling drug dealing in the area and urged residents to report concerns.
Information can be submitted through the Met’s online reporting tools, via web chat or by calling 101. Anonymous reports can also be made through the charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
