Three held in Cork over drug trafficking concerns

Three men are being quizzed on suspicion of drug trafficking and an impounded yacht is being searched under armed guard following a multi-agency intelligence-led operation off the coast.

Garda forensic experts were combing the French-flagged Sun Magic 44-type yacht at Castlepark Marina in Kinsale, Co Cork, last night, where it remained under armed guard alongside a Customs cutter.
