TWO people have been arrested on suspicion of supplying Class A drugs.
A 41-year old man and a 25-year old woman were arrested on Wednesday at an address in the West Rainton area, near Durham City after warrants were executed in conjunction with Greater Manchester Police.
A second warrant was executed in the Houghton-le-Spring area.
The pair were believed to be supplying Class A drugs and committing money laundering offences.
Both were taken into custody in Durham City before being transferred to Manchester.
The man has since been charged with conspiracy to supply Class A drugs and the woman has been released on bail pending further enquiries.
