New legislation and a “sustained focus” on drug-related crime has led to the seizure of millions of dollars in assets and 900 arrests, police say.
Civil forfeiture legislation, introduced in December last year, allowed police to follow money trails left by organised gangs and criminals and focus on the production, sale and use of methamphetamine, police deputy commissioner Rob Pope said.
A total of $36m in assets - including cash, houses, vehicles and other property - was being investigated, he said. About $25m was believed to be gained through drug-related crime.
