Cocaine worth up to €20m seized in Cork
In what is thought to be the largest land seizure of cocaine in the history of the state, officers raided a warehouse in Ballynakilla, Bartlemy, where 80kg of the drugs were being stored for distribution in the Irish and British markets on behalf of an international drug smuggling gang.
Five men of German, Irish and Hungarian origin were being detained in Garda stations in Cork and Dublin last night.
