'Cannabis gin' among items seized in Cork

Gardaí in Co. Cork have seized €15,000 worth of cannabis and cannabis products including cannabis cookies, cannabis butter and cannabis gin.

Drugs Squad Detectives from Mallow made the surprising discovery when they raided a house in the Glantane area around four miles from the North Cork town early on Saturday morning.

A man in his late 40s was arrested and questioned under Section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act. He has since been released without charge and a file is being prepared for the DPP.
