The force said officers, alongside specialist resources and a dog unit, entered a property on Cairo Terrace and conducted a thorough search - seizing two knives. “The activity followed ongoing enquiries as part of our work to relentlessly pursue criminals in the city,” Portsmouth Police said.

A Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary spokesman added: “Jake Terry Osemobo, aged 29, of Cairo Terrace has subsequently been charged with possession of an offensive weapon in a private place and failure to provide a sample for a Class A drug test. He has been bailed to appear at Portsmouth Magistrates Court on Thursday, July 25.”
