We’ve had Cocaine Bear - and now we have the cocaine boat.
On Tuesday, over 2.2 tonnes of cocaine was seized in a joint operation between the Army Ranger Wing, the Irish Navy, the Garda National-Drugs and Organised Crime Bureau and Revenue.
In a dramatic operation, they halted the MV Matthew vessel off the Cork coast, in what is a major blow to organised crime.
To give us an insight into a stunning 24 hours in Irish policing, Ciaran Bradley is joined by the Irish Daily Star and Irish Mirror’s Crime and Defence Editor, Michael O’Toole.
Shattered Lives is produced for Reach Ireland by Ciaran Bradley.
