The trade in dodgy vapes puts vulnerable children at risk of exploitation, say officials
The joint operation by GMP Rochdale's 'Complex Safeguarding Team' and Rochdale Council's trading standards department, saw officers seize 750 illegal vapes said to be worth £9000 following visits to four retailers in the borough.
They went on: "The flavours of these vapes are attractive to children and the levels of nicotine in them are highly addictive, meaning children are also being coerced into criminal activity and sexual exploitation, to enable them to continue using them." "We have been out with trading standards and we have focused on illegal vapes being sold in petrol stations, newsagents and other retail outlets. We are committed to being proactive in our work and uncovering any activity that may lead to CCE and CSE."
