The haul of drugs and contraband cigarettes seized yesterday in Derry

POLICE arrested five people in Derry yesterday as part of planned searches in drug dealing.

And as part of the co-ordinated raids officers got more than just drugs – 25,000 contraband cigarettes

PSNI Foyle say on its Facebook page: “KNOCK KNOCK:

“Yesterday morning officers from DC&S District Support Team supported by our colleagues in TSG and Ballyarnett NPT searched 4 properties in the city.

“As a result we arrested 5 persons and seized a quantity of both Class C and prescription drugs.

“Oh and there was also the small matter of 25000+ contraband cigarettes (those brown boxes are full too)… RESULT!

“Worryingly it appears the internet provides a platform to source all of the items seized.

“Take a chance and we might just be knocking your door next…..”

Drugs recovered during police raids on homes in Derry yesterday
