THREE MEN HAVE been arrested on suspicion of drug trafficking after Gardaí seized heroin, tablets and cannabis with an estimated value of €700,000.
An “ongoing intelligence-led” operation by the Organised Crime Unit and National Bureau of Criminal Investigations led Gardaí to Rathkenny, Co Meath yesterday afternoon.
At around 3.30 pm they arrested three men – aged 31, 35 and 44 – and seized an amount of cannabis at the scene.
Follow-up searches led to the discovery and seizure of heroin, tablets and cannabis herb and resin, along with a large sum of cash.
Yesterday’s operation is part of an investigation into the sale and supply of drugs in north-east Leinster.
The three men arrested are currently being detained at Kells and Navan Garda stations.
