The seizure follows a joint operation involving the Police Service of Northern Ireland's organised crime unit, Border Force staff and Belfast Harbour Police. "This search, seizure and arrest was conducted as part of our ongoing commitment to address the criminality linked to drug importation, supply and use that often results in drug debts, drug addiction and drug-related deaths within our communities," a PSNI detective inspector said.
"Through multi-agency efforts we will continue to carry out operations, to break the cycle of those who seek to cause harm through the illegal importation and supply of drugs in Northern Ireland, and to dismantle the organised criminal gangs who profit from this incredibly harmful activity."Image source,
