Gang made €750,000 of cocaine a week

GARDAÍ in Dublin have broken up one of the biggest cocaine networks in the city.

Detectives from the Garda National Drugs Unit arrested one man at a house in Terenure at 9.15pm on Thursday. The house was being used as a cocaine factory to produce €750,000 worth of the drug every week for the past year.

Three-quarters of a kilo of cocaine worth around €38,000 were found, plus a compressor, a vacuum packer and other materials for mixing and packaging cocaine for sale.
