A GARDA OPERATION in Rathcoole, Co Dublin has ended in the seizure of an assortment of jewellery, which Gardaí are now trying to reunite with their rightful owners.
‘Operation Fiacla’ culminated yesterday afternoon when members of the Garda Organised Crime Unit stopped and searched a car at Rathcoole.
They seized jewellery including watches, rings, chains, bracelets, and pendants before arresting four males and detaining them at Clondalkin Garda Station.
This pendant, for example, containing family photographs, is presumably very valuable indeed to whoever once carried it around with them.

Two men aged in their 20s and one in his 50s appeared before Blanchardstown District Court today charged in connection with the investigation.
