We are appealing to restaurant owners in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire to come forward after a large quantity of cooking oil was recovered.
Around 10.15am on Wednesday, 4 June, 2025, officers stopped a van on the A92 near Newtonhill and recovered the oil.
Two men aged 29 and 19 have been arrested and enquiries are ongoing.
