Gardaí seized 170 cannabis plants at various stages of growth, with an estimated street value of over €130,000 and a variety of cultivation equipment during a planned search of a residential property in Courtown yesterday (Tuesday).
One male, aged in his late 30s, was arrested at the scene and detained under Section 2 of the Criminal Justice (Drugs Trafficking) Act 1996 at a Garda Station in the Eastern Region.
Gardaí attached to Wexford North Community Engagement supported by the local Crime unit conducted the search, which according to the Garda Press Office, “a sophisticated cannabis cultivation operation was discovered.“
This operation was conducted as part of Operation Tara, an ongoing Garda initiative targeting drug trafficking networks and related criminal activity.
All items seized will be sent for further analysis to Forensic Science Ireland (FSI).
Investigations are ongoing.
