Six people have been arrested in connection with a suspected class B drugs haul thought to be worth around £60,000. PSNI confirmed this evening (Friday May 12) that five men and one woman were arrested in relation to the discovery in Belfast.
Police did not disclose where in Belfast the drugs were found. Detective Inspector Kelly said that drug dealing funds gang-related crimes and their actions make the lives of families a misery.
DI Kelly added: "We are determined to investigate the supply of controlled drugs by organised criminal gangs and remove them from our community. The sale of drugs funds gang related criminality and their activities create misery for families and exploits vulnerable persons.
