South Armagh: Man charged after drug searches
PSNIA man has been charged with a number of drug offences after a quantity of suspected Class B drugs was seized following searches in South Armagh on Sunday.
Approximately £50,000 worth of suspected herbal cannabis and £100,000 in cash were seized.
The man is charged with possession of class B drugs and possession of the drugs with intent to supply.
He is also charged with possession of criminal property.
The 40-year-old man was arrested following searches at two properties in the Bessbrook area.
He will appear at Newry Magistrates Court on Monday.
Ch Insp Adam Corner said: "A number of other high value items were also seized, including watches and a vehicle."
"Police remain committed to tackling the scourge of drug supply and misuse in South Armagh.
"The proceeds of the sale of drugs can often have devastating impact on communities and fund organised crime. This significant find would not have been possible today without the assistance of the general public."
