TWO 20-YEAR-OLD PEOPLE have been charged and a third has been arrested after € 245,000 worth of cocaine was seized at Dublin Airport.

The seizure took place shortly before 8 p.m. Sunday night, when customs officers told Gardaí that they had detained three passengers who had arrived from continental Europe that same day on suspicion of drug trafficking.

The passengers, two men and a woman, had allegedly ingested 280 granules of alleged cocaine.

All three were arrested and taken to the Ballymun Garda station under section 2 of the 1996 Drug Trafficking Act.

One of the men and the woman were later charged and are in court this morning, while the second man remains in Garda custody.
