A Dutch truck driver was charged today in connection with the seizure of cannabis worth more than €8m, at Dublin Port on Wednesday last.
In the largest drugs haul so far this year, officers from Revenue’s Customs service supported by gardaí seized about 700kg of the drug, with an estimated street value about €8.4m, which had been found vacuum packed in a 40ft Dutch-registered truck carrying a consignment of flowers.
