The men – aged 31 and 44 – were detained in Lurgan earlier this morning – they have been taken to the Antrim Serious Crime Suite for questioning.
The Minister for Justice Alan Shatter says Gardaí and the PSNI have never been closer in terms of co-operation and a number of lines of inquiry are underway.
