Detectives from the Police Service of Northern Ireland’s Organised Crime Branch have seized cannabis with an estimated street value of £1.5m.
Detective Inspector Sweeney said: “The cannabis was seized in the south Belfast area on Monday morning, 31st July by Local Policing Team officers.
“It has now been taken away for further forensic examination.
“Our investigation is continuing and today’s seizure is a demonstration of our ongoing commitment to tackle all types of organised criminality.
“The supply and demand of drugs is a vicious cycle that we need to collectively break within our communities, as it feeds wider organised criminality.”
Anyone with information on the illegal supply of drugs should contact police on 101 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
