Appeal
Detective Constable Kane added: "Every day we are working to disrupt crime and take drugs off our streets and we will continue to proactively investigate and carry out searches to identify those involved.
"Information from the public is crucial in helping us to tackle the scourge of drugs. It helps us focus our efforts on identifying those who make their living by bringing drugs to our streets and into neighbourhoods. Drugs cause misery in our communities, we have seen that far too often.
“I appeal to anyone with concerns or information about suspected drug-related activity to speak with police on 101, or submit a report online using our non-emergency reporting form via http://www.psni.police.uk/makeareport/"
