Gardai are continuing to question five men in connection with what’s been described as one of the largest cocaine seizures in the history of the State.
Up to 10 million euro worth of the drug was seized yesterday when Gardai carried out a search at a warehouse in Bartlemy in Cork.
A 56 year old German national and a 45 year old Irishman were arrested at the premises.
