Three men with alleged links to southwest Sydney drug syndicates have been refused bail following their arrests on Tuesday morning.

Strike Force Cooleen executed four search warrants in the Denham Court, Gregory Hills, Lansvale and Bossley Park areas and arrested three men around 6am.

The police allegedly seized a large sum of cash, along with prohibited drugs and fireworks as a result of their searches.

The men aged 39, 42, and 61, were taken to Liverpool, Camden and Fairfield police stations for questioning.

All three men were charged with supplying large commercial quantities of drugs.

The 42-year-old man was charged with directing a criminal group with the other two men charged for participating in a criminal group.

The 42-year-old also received two charges of dealing with proceeds of crime, with the 61-year-old man charged only once for the same offence.

They were all refused bail in court on Tuesday, with the 42-year-old - the alleged primary offender - appearing at Liverpool Local Court; the 61-year-old at Fairfield Local Court, and the 39-year-old at Moss Vale Local Court.

The 39-year-old man has been remanded in custody to appear at Campbelltown District Court on 10 April 2024.

The spokeswoman said the arrests come following an extensive investigation into an alleged cocaine supply in the South West Sydney metropolitan region.

Strike Force Cooleen will be continuing their investigations.
