    Cross-country enquiries into suspected electronic till fraud

    Takeaways across England have been subject to unannounced inspections as part of an Electronic Sales Suppression (ESS) probe. The action by HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) officers took place at a total of 17 different outlets in London, Ipswich, Manchester and Newcastle over the last month. It follows several separate till fraud enquiries, which include the arrest of a 47-year-old man.
