A LOWESTOFT man has been charged with illegal moneylending and proceeds-of-crime offences, it was reported this week.

The allegations follow an investigation in the town by a Trading Standards East of England team.

They relate to a raid on a property in September last year. The operation was assisted by Suffolk police area intelligence officers.

The 56-year-old man is scheduled to appear at Lowestoft Magistrates' Court on Tuesday, March 1.
