dawn raids

Dawn raids refer to the practice where law enforcement or regulatory agencies conduct surprise inspections or arrests early in the morning. These operations are often aimed at gathering evidence related to suspected criminal activity, fraud, or breaches of regulations. By acting at dawn, authorities catch individuals off guard, potentially preventing the destruction of evidence or escape. Dawn raids are commonly used in cases involving corporate misconduct or organized crime, and they emphasize the seriousness of the investigation. The operations can involve multiple agencies, and they are executed with planning and coordination to ensure safety and effectiveness.
