A man remains under investigation for making threats to kill and fraud after he was accused of failing to deliver a service following payment of a “large quantity of money” by another man.
As part of early morning police raids across the area in April, a 36-year-old man from Fareham was arrested on suspicion of threats to kill and fraud by false representation following an incident reported to police on February 28.

“The victim, a man in his 50s, reported that he had paid a large quantity of money to a second man for a service which was not provided. When challenged, the suspect became abusive towards the victim,” a police spokesman said.
The 36-year-old was released on conditional police bail while the investigation continued. He has now been re-bailed until October 4.
