Gardaí are searching for at least two men and a woman they believe were involved in a cocaine packaging operation that was uncovered in north Co Dublin.

Detectives who searched a flat in Donabate found a hydraulic compressor, a chemical mix, a quantity of mixing agents and 19kg of cocaine, 10kg of it uncut, with an estimated street value of €1.3m.

Garda Superintendent Noel McLoughlin said the flat is in the newly built Ballisk Court complex and had been rented only last week.
