A man in his 30s has been arrested after Gardaí seized €638,000 in cash during a vehicle stop in the Cabra area of West Dublin on Wednesday afternoon.
A Garda spokesperson said:
One male (aged in his 30s) was arrested pursuant to Section 72 of the Criminal Justice Act 2006 in relation to facilitating and enhancing money laundering activities for an organised crime group and is currently detained under Section 50 of the Criminal Justice Act 2007 at a Dublin Garda Station.
Photos released by Gardaí show bundles of cash seized during the operation, highlighting the scale of the find.
The man remains in custody as investigations continue. Gardaí have confirmed that further inquiries are ongoing to dismantle the wider criminal network involved.
This latest development marks another significant blow to organised crime operations in Dublin, with authorities reaffirming their commitment to tackling money laundering and drug-related activities across Ireland.
