It is very difficult for me to answer this question with regards to the buses, as these are Policed by the MPS. However, with regards to the London Underground network, we had few dealings with the MDP as they tended to concentrate their criminality on the bus routes. Some identified MDP gang members have been dealt with by BTP, but typically for low level crime such as Fare Evasion and byelaw offences. This, however, is funadmental in building an intelligence picture, such that our organised crime departments can actively target the offenders travelling habits, dress and home addresses.
