25% of searches found drugs
Police have defended their record on search warrants, assuring force is 'proportionate' when carrying out property raids for drugs.
Despite recent data showing that 75% of searches found minimal to no substance, the media spokesperson for the Constabulary says search warrants are 'an important tool' in policing the Island.
Asked about whether compensation was given to those affected, Inspector Gavin Callow had this response:
Farmers in race against time after freight backlog in Heysham
Concern for crops and animals after delays to feed and fertiliser deliveries
Further changes to sailing schedule due to tidal restrictions
Manxman crossings affected over next three days
Census 'still one of the most valuable statistical tools' for government
