Concern For Welfare Call Leads To Two Arrests Onboard Fishing Vessel In Shoreham

Arrests have been made following a report of a concern for the welfare of five crew members onboard a fishing vessel moored in Shoreham.

On Wednesday evening 4 November, officers went to the boat and took the five men, aged between 23 and 44, to a place of safety for them to receive support and advice.

Two men aged 36 and 47 were arrested on suspicion of keeping persons in slavery and are currently in custody for interview and further enquiries.

The investigation is at an early stage and officers are working to establish the full circumstances.
