Little in the way of detail, unless the "Dinnington" and "Manor" locations give any clues.

Officers executing warrants in Sheffield and Rotherham have today (7 December) arrested four individuals on suspicion of being involved in Modern Slavery.

A 45-year-old man and 37-year-old woman from the Dinnington area of Rotherham were arrested on suspicion of Modern Slavery concerning Sexual Exploitation. A further warrant secured the arrest of a 58-year old woman and 37-year old woman from the Manor area of Sheffield on suspicion of Modern Slavery concerning Sexual Exploitation. The four individuals remain in police custody pending further investigation.

The warrants were executed at residential addresses as part of an ongoing investigation by the Modern Slavery team.

Investigating Officer Emma Halton said: “If anyone has any information which could assist us with our investigation, please contact us online or by calling 101. Please quote incident number 759 of 1 September 2023, when you get in touch. Any information provided to the police will be taken seriously and reviewed and investigated thoroughly.”

Detective Inspector James Smith from the Modern Slavery Team said: “Modern Slavery is occurring within our communities across South Yorkshire and information from members of the public is crucial so that vulnerable people who are potential victims of exploitation and locations of concern can be identified.  We are determined to keep people safe and pursue those who exploit people through Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking. If you suspect someone may be at risk or have any information which may relate to Modern Slavery or Human Trafficking, please report it to the police or via the Modern Slavery Helpline on 0800 0121 700. Any information provided to the police will be taken seriously and reviewed and investigated thoroughly.”

There was some anti-trafficking thing reported in the papers this week with connections to Doncaster. Drug dealing, slavery, the whole shebang so one sounds like a gang of the usual suspects.
