Over 60 kg of cocaine destined for the Irish market has been intercepted at Rosslare Europort by Gardaí and customs officials.
This seizure was made as part of ongoing operations targeting inbound freight from Europe.
A total of 66 kgs of cocaine, with an estimated street value of €4.6 million, was seized.
“No arrests have been made during this phase of the investigation and inquiries are ongoing,” said a Garda spokesperson.
The discovery was made as a result of routine profiling.
The illegal drugs were destined for the Irish market and were intercepted following the deployment of Revenue’s mobile X-ray scanner, and with the assistance of detector dog Defor, in inbound freight from Europe at Rosslare Europort.
