BREAKING: Three charged to appear in court after €300,000 drugs bust in Limerick factory

Three individuals arrested in connection with the seizure of €300,000 worth of cannabis in Limerick have been charged, and are set to appear in court today. One is in his 30s, and two others are in their 40s.

Four arrests were made yesterday when Gardaí recovered the significant amount of drugs in a factory raid property on Clare Street in Limerick city. Some €10,000 in cash was also seized during the planned operation.

Shortly before midday, armed gardaí, using a battering ram and steel cutters, assisted drug squad officers in gaining entry to the property.

Friday’s crackdown on the illegal sale and supply of drugs in the city was led by the Limerick Divisional Drug Unit, supported by the Garda Regional Armed Support Unit (ASU).

All three are scheduled to appear before a sitting of Limerick District Court at 1:30 pm today, Saturday, April 27th. The fourth person arrested, a male in his 60s, remains detained under Section 2 Criminal Justice (Drug Trafficking ) Act 1996 at a Garda Station in the Limerick Division.
