A team of more than a dozen search officers were at the property in Shrivenham Road, Swindon, until about 5pm when they removed the final bags of seized items and left.

Two large vans – one marked and one unmarked – could be seen parked in the road as they executed the search warrant near the Wills Avenue junction.
