Gardaí arrested three people and seized several stolen vehicles and property as part of an ongoing investigation into an organized crime gang.

Gardaí searched a premises in Saggart, Co Dublin under court order on Saturday, seizing two cars, a Breitling watch and a crossbow.

Another six cars, three caravans and 3,800 euros in cash were seized in previous searches as part of the same investigation.

Gardaí arrested two women, ages 40 to 20, and a man in his 20s in connection with today’s search.

They were taken to Tallaght and Rathfarnham Garda stations and detained under section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act 1984, but they have since been released. Gardaí said a file will now be prepared for the DPP.

Three people were previously arrested in connection with the same investigation in January this year: two women, between 40 and 20 years old, and a man in his 20s. A file is also being prepared for submission to the DPP regarding these arrests.

Gardaí from the Detective Unit at Tallaght Garda Station carried out the investigation searches with the help of colleagues from the Emergency Response Unit, the Office of Criminal Assets, the Stolen Vehicle Investigation Unit, and the Garda Dog Unit. .
