The massive £2.5 million cocaine seizure found by police in Co Tyrone last month

DETECTIVES have arrested two men following the seizure of suspected cocaine with an estimated street value of between £100,000 and £120,000.

The haul was uncovered when police stopped a car on Thursday evening in the greater Belfast area.

Two men aged 39 and 40 were arrested on suspicion of possession of Class A drugs with intent to supply.

Police said the arrests were part of an “investigation into an organised crime group”.

“Significant finds in recent weeks show the PSNI’s commitment to keeping our community safer by frustrating, disrupting and dismantling organised crime gangs,” said Detective Inspector Trevor Stevenson from the PSNI’s Organised Crime Branch said.

Last month, 50kg of cocaine – with a street value of £2.5 million – was found in suitcases inside a lorry load of furniture found in Co Tyrone.
