Gardaí seize cash in search of Longford town house

On Friday 28 April 2023, gardaí searched a house in Longford town during a planned operation as part of an ongoing organised crime investigation, and seized cash. A woman in her forties was arrested and later released without charge. The search is separate from an earlier Wednesday search of two Longford town houses, which recovered almost €30,000 in cash. The latest development is that no arrests have been made at this time, investigations are ongoing, and a file is to be sent to the Director of Public Prosecutions.
