60 gardaí working to get drug off streets
The drug, which has the street nickname “Mandy”, may have caused the deaths of two men whose bodies were found in a cottage in Kinsale, Co Cork, last Sunday.
Gardaí know that a quantity of the brown powdered drug — which is a mixture of ecstasy and its chemical cousin PMMA — was sold to people in Cork City last weekend, and they are appealing to drug users not to take it, as doing so could be fatal.
