Police drove through security gates before battering open a door and raiding a house in Swanley.

Officers from the Met's Taskforce used a heavy duty vehicle to break down a set of gates at 5.15am this morning, as part of an ongoing investigation into the large-scale organised supply of drugs into the UK.

A 32-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to import Class A drugs, and remains in custody.

Detective Chief Inspector Driss Hayoukane, from the Met's Specialist Crime Command, said: "We have a wide range of tactics and methods that allows us to catch and arrest those involved in serious organised criminality.

"As part of Operation Eternal we are continuing to pursue criminals who are using encrypted mobile devices to move drugs onto the streets of London and beyond.

"By removing the large-scale drugs supply into London we are removing the accelerant that fuels the violence and stabbings that leave people with serious injuries and some families grieving."
