Drug arrests in Rathfriland

Ulster Unionist Councillors Elizabeth Ingram and Glenn Barr have welcomed news that the PSNI have arrested another person in regards to the £500,000 drugs find in Rathfriland.

Councillor Ingram said: “We cannot thank the PSNI enough for taking these drugs out of circulation before they entered the market, who knows what criminality and suffering has been averted by this.”

Councillor Glenn Barr added: “I welcome more arrests

“I would like to see tougher sentencing for this type of criminality.

“I repeat my call, please bring any information of drug dealing to myself or other representatives, the PSNI or crimestoppers, only together can we as a society get rid of this scourge.”
