Raid on safe deposit boxes uncovers "Aladdin's cave of ill-gotten gains"

Lovely phrase! This raid was mentioned last year, when the raid occured, somewhere around June. Operation Rize was its name. 40 arrested, 11 charged and 700 referred to HMRC for tax evasion involving £15 million. More than half the over 3,500 boxes suspected of connections to criminality.
