A Polish man has been remanded in custody after gardaí charged him over a seizure of almost €141,000 in suspected crime proceeds.
Andrzej Slyk, 38, must lodge €125,000 bail to be released pending trial, a judge ruled today.
Gardaí, attached to the Dublin Crime Response Team, arrested two people and seized €140,960 during a search operation at a house in Drimnagh, Dublin 12, on Thursday evening.
Garda Simon Cadam told Dublin District Court that Mr Slyk, with an address at 41-400 Myslowice, Poland, made no reply when charged under section seven of the Criminal Justice (Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing) Act 2010.
Mr Slyk is accused of possessing alleged proceeds of criminal conduct, which, on conviction, carries a maximum 14-year sentence.
Judge Quirke ordered a cash lodgement and confirmation from Polish authorities of his address before bail can be taken up.
Mr Slyk listened to the proceedings with the assistance of a translator.
Legal aid was granted to the accused, who will face his next hearing on 8 September at Cloverhill District Court.
Gardaí released a woman, in her 40s, without charge and will prepare a file for the Director of Public Prosecutions while investigations continue.
