'Drugs den' that caused misery on Greater Manchester estate closed by court
A 'drugs den' that blighted a Rochdale estate and caused misery to neighbours has been shut down. Manchester Magistrates Court granted a closure order against the property on the Atherstone block of flats, in Falinge.
Neighbourhood Inspector Meena Yasin, from the Rochdale North Neighbourhood Poling Team, said: "This is the tougher end of neighbourhood policing and marks a significant step forward for us in Rochdale. The property had been operating as a drugs den, with numerous criminal activities taking place including a significant amount of anti-social behaviour emanating from the address.
