The Criminal Assets Bureau assisted by the Emergency Response Unit and the Customs Dog Unit this morning, 27/09/19, conducted searches at 5 locations in South and West Dublin areas.
This morning’s search operation was conducted as part of an on-going investigation targeting assets acquired with the proceeds of crime by an organised crime group involved in the sale and supply of controlled drugs.
