By Ushma Mistry
A SPECIAL intelligence cell costing £5 million has been set up to combat organised crime after the number of murders among South Asians has more than tripled in the last decade.
Assistant Commissioner Tarique Ghaffur, the Head of the Met's Specialist Crime Directorate, is calling on South Asian Londoners, which includes Tamils, Sikhs, Pakistanis, Bengalis and Indians, to report members of their community who are involved in organised crime after the number of murders rose from just ten in 1993 to 38 last year."
