Gardaí object to bail for man accused of having €255,000 of cannabis

Vincent O’Brien was charged in 2014 with being in possession of the drugs and having them for the purpose of sale or supply to others.

 Gardaí seized €255,000 worth of cannabis at Vicarstown in County Cork in 2014 and now they have objected to bail for the man facing charges in the case, claiming that he “absconded for eight years". 

Detective Garda Eoin O’Toole objected to bail being granted to Vincent O’Brien who now lives at 16 Assumpta Park, Newcastle West, County Limerick, at Cork District Court.
