During regular operations yesterday, Revenue agents recovered almost 38kgs of herbal cannabis with the use of their mobile x-ray scanner and detection dog Jasper.
When a polish registered articulated vehicle and trailer landed on a ferry from Cherbourg, France, the illegal drugs were discovered concealed in spare tyres.
