Cork man pleads guilty to possession of cannabis worth €500,000 for sale or supply

Defendant was remanded in custody until February 19, 2027, for sentencing

The cannabis was discovered during a Garda search of a car in The Glen in Cork, court told.

More than €500,000 worth of cannabis boxed in vacuum-packs was uncovered during a Garda search of a car in The Glen in Cork last January and on Friday a man who was facing trial by judge and jury later this month pleaded guilty instead to the main charge against him.

25-year-old Daniel Kelleher, of 44 Mourne Avenue, The Glen, Cork, was arraigned at Cork Circuit Criminal Court where he pleaded guilty to a charge of possession of cannabis for sale or supply on January 22 at Arderrin Way, The Glen, Cork.
