    New efforts to curb pirate radio in London
    ( credit: medianetwork weblog )


    A number of boroughs in London have joined forces to try to close down pirate radio stations in the British capital which are linked to drug dealing. The councils say the illegal broadcasts are used to advertise secret raves where drugs are sold. They also claim that petty crime is being committed by persons needing money to advertise on the stations. Residents living in the tower blocks where the antennas are located are often terrorised, and council officials need police protection to carry out raids. Now, Tower Hamlets, Newham and Barking, Hackney and Dagenham say they will work together to prevent the pirates from escaping across borough boundaries and displacing the problem. The councils will use court injunctions and antisocial behaviour orders to ban the rogue broadcasters from the capital. In Hackney alone, almost 50 masts have been removed so far this year. These measures are in addition to the efforts of media regulator Ofcom, which carried out 589 operations against pirate radio stations in London last year, and is on course for an even higher total at the end of 2004.
