NEW IRA DRUG TIE-UP: 27-Year-Old Bruv Charged in North Belfast Bust
The old bill's been on the trail of some serious heat, fam. A 27-year-old geezer was nicked during raids in North Belfast last Wednesday, July 15. The PSNIβs Serious Crime Branch swooped on the ends, uncovering links to the New IRA and a whole stash of dodgy business π.
Charges are piling up for this roadman: supply of Class A drugs, possession of Class B with intent to supply, and being all up in the supply game. He's due in Belfast Magistrates' Court on August 12, where he'll have some serious explaining to do π₯΅.
A PSNI spokesperson kept it tight: "The searches were part of a proactive investigation into drug criminality linked to the New IRA. As is usual procedure, all charges will be reviewed by the Public Prosecution Service." Stay tuned for more on this one.
