Three people were arrested and
another person cited on Tuesday for allegedly posing as finance
police in order to rob motorists.
The suspects allegedly simulated tax-evasion controls at
motorway lay bys before forcing drivers to hand over their money
and car keys.
In Tuesday's operation police recovered clothes bearing the
inscription 'finance police', police lights, two reproduction
pistols, electric stun guns, knuckledusters and rubber gloves.
