Two men have been arrested on suspicion of making £80 million from alcohol related fraud.
The men, from Tottenham and Enfield, were arrested in dawn raids by Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs (HMRC).
Cash totalling £150,000, computers and personal and business records were seized during property searches, as well as a Taser gun.
David Margree, assistant director of Criminal Investigation at HMRC, said: “HMRC will take all necessary steps to ensure that the tainted profits amassed by these professional crime gangs will be pursued and recovered.”
