Police investigating suspected modern slavery activity in Uckfield have seized cash and made an arrest.
On Thursday (3 September) officers from East Sussex Project Discovery executed a warrant to search the Uckfield Nail Bar in Uckfield High Street, and a flat nearby.
Documents were seized at both locations and £4000 cash was seized at the flat.
A 31-year-old woman was arrested on suspicion of requiring the carrying out of forced labour, contrary to Section 1 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015.
She has been released on bail until 23 September while enquiries continue.
No other arrests were made.
