Seven individuals were arrested in Ilford town centre following a facial recognition operation that targeted various offences including serious sexual assault and harassment. The arrests occurred on February 21, leveraging technology to identify individuals with outstanding warrants. Supt Clare McCarthy emphasized the importance of integrating policing skills with technology to enhance community safety and deter future criminal activity. Continuous efforts will be made to target potential offenders and maintain security in the area.
These operations allow our officers to combine their policing skills together with utilising data and technology to quickly identify wanted offenders that pose a risk to our community.
Not only do we want to remove wanted offenders from the streets, but also to deter criminals from coming to the area.
