Cuckooing is when Organised Crime Groups (OCGs) or perpetrators take over properties through force, deceit or coercion.
It is often included with "County Lines" activity, occurring when gangs take control over a vulnerable adult's address, as a site to store/supply/produce drugs from.
We have also seen reports of individuals holding the properties for pop-up brothels, storing weapons or other illicit and unwanted activity. Gangs will do this in order to avoid Police detection themselves.
