A 27-year-old man and a 22-year-old woman are being questioned by gardaí this morning following a drugs seizure in Dublin yesterday.
Detectives from the Ballyfermot Drugs Unit, assisted by local gardaí, seized cocaine with a street value of approximately €450,000 along with a small number of cannabis plants during a search in the south of the city.
Gardaí searched a house in Palmerstown Woods yesterday afternoon as part of an ongoing operation targeting the sale and supply of drugs in the Ballyfermot area.
A 27-year- old man was arrested at the scene and a 22-year-old woman was arrested a short time later as part of the investigation.
Both remain at Ballyfermot Garda Station where they have been detained under section 2 of the Drug Trafficking Act.
