10 years for man in €3.3m heroin case

A man who was caught with €3.3m worth of heroin in what Judge Desmond Hogan described as "a transit house and distribution centre" has been sentenced to 10 years in prison.

Jason Kelly (aged 24), of Bluebell Road, Bluebell, Dublin 12, had no previous convictions but had agreed to transport the drugs in a bid to pay off a debt he had built up through drug dealing.
