Revenue officers seized 23 kg of herbal cannabis and 3.3 kg of cannabis resin, estimated at €480,000, from the luggage of Maria Lucilia Martins, a 60-year-old Portuguese woman, at Shannon Airport on 7 April 2024. She had arrived on a flight from Faro, Portugal, and was arrested by Gardaí and detained under the Criminal Justice (Drug Trafficking) Act.
