The country’s biggest drug trafficking gang has been hit on the double, with a second massive seizure of cocaine in just two days. In total, Gardaí and Revenue have taken 66kg of the drug as it entered the State in Wexford. The day before, on Thursday, Gardaí and Revenue seized 30kg of cocaine in Rosslare. As part of that operation, Gardaí confirmed that this outfit had replaced the Kinahan crime cartel as the biggest drug trafficking gang in the country. The gang, which has been in operation for almost three decades, was once the biggest heroin trafficking network in the country.
