Gardai carried out a number of searches across the country Wednesday in relation to criminal activity in Limerick.
Gardai say the searches were conducted in Dublin, Tipperary, Offaly and Kerry, which they say were targeting individuals involved in gang feuding in Limerick.
“A total of 12 searches were conducted and included searches of private residences, commercial premises and professional offices,” a Garda spokesperson confirmed.
The searches were conducted by members of the Criminal Assets Bureau, Detective Gardai from Birr, Roscrea, Nenagh and Tipperary Town Garda Stations, the Regional Support Unit based in Mullingar Garda Station, The Garda Dog Unit and members of the Divisional Crime Task Force.
Although nobody was arrested, Gardai confirmed €38,000 in cash was seized along with a large amount of documentary evidence and computers.
Investigations are said to be ongoing.
Remember that extensive Operation flatten em in 2008? (ooops I meant Platinum!). Nothing has changed really, has it.
Well now that the Gardai in Henry Street have a new bit of an extension to move to……it’s apparently going to solve a lorra crimes in Limerick going forward! All they apparently needed was more space *cough*.
