3 million cannabis and cocaine seizure at Belfast port

The PSNI has said organised crime gangs regularly co-operate on a cross-border basis to import and distribute large shipments of drugs.

They were speaking as they put on show £3 million worth of cannabis and cocaine seized at Belfast port at the weekend.

It is one of the biggest single seizures by the authorities in Northern Ireland in recent years.

Detective Inspector Conor Sweeney said while it was too early to be specific about the destination of the seizure - criminals regularly co-operated for profit in similar situations.
