"Lawyers, accountants and estate agents who oil the wheels of the drug trade are to be targeted by an elite crime-fighting unit and specialist prosecutors similar to those battling the Mafia in Italy. The SDEA (Scottish Drug Enforcement Agency) says that 2006 will see a 'significant shift in focus' in drugs law enforcement towards hunting down and prosecuting the white-collar professionals who prop up organised crime in Scotland. Historically, the police service's focus has been only on the criminals, but we know that those on the periphery - the lawyers, accountants, estate agents - are enabling organised criminals to run their businesses."
