They allegedly found a number of financial records relating to members of the crime network.

A 43-year-old man was arrested on Edwin Street in Croydon a short time later.

He was charged with multiple fraud-related offences and granted bail to appear in court on June 17.

On June 20, a 30-year-old man was issued a court attendance notice for July 30 on charges of dishonestly obtaining property by deception.
