Cash seizures at Rosslare Europort

By Dan Walsh

Revenue officers were granted two three-month cash detention orders by Judge John Cheatle at a sitting of Gorey District Court yesterday (Wednesday).

This followed two seizures of €10,210, in cash, and a small amount of foreign currency at Rosslare Europort. The discovery was made because of risk profiling when Revenue officers searched a van which was scheduled to board a ferry to Cherbourg, France.

Two men in their 20s were questioned in relation to these seizures.

If businesses, or members of the public, have any information regarding smuggling, they can contact Revenue in confidence on 1800 295 295.
