That is, quite simply, a lot of cannabis.
Cannabis with an estimated street value of €900,000 has been discovered at a grow operation in Co. Clare. The discovery was a result of a search at a premises at Tinarana, Killaloe, Co. Clare.
The Clare Divisional Drugs Unit were supported in the search by local uniform and plainclothes Gardaí, the Western Region Armed Support Unit and the Cork Garda Dog Unit in the investigation.
The grow house, which was described by Gardaí as “significant”, contained evidence of the production of Cannabis at all stages (nursery, mature plants, dried plants). A large number of plants with an estimated street value of €900,000 pending analysis were uncovered as part of the operation.
A female in her early 20s has been arrested at the scene and is currently being detained at Ennis Garda Station under section 4 Criminal Justice Act, 1984. She has not been publicly named by the Gardaí. The search and investigations remain ongoing.
