Two people are being held for questioning after herbal cannabis, with an estimated street value of more than €180,000, was seized in Rosslare port.

Officers from Revenue’s customs service seized the 15kg of drugs concealed in a vehicle leaving a ferry that had arrived from the UK.

A man and a woman are being questioned.

In a statement, the Revenue said the seizure was made because of 'risk profiling' and a 'reaction' given by Dylan, a drug detecting dog.
