A 30 year old Cork man is due back in court today after he and another man were charged with a €100,000 drugs seizure
They were arrested by Gardaí responding to reports of illegal fireworks being set off in Cobh on Halloween Night.
Martin Long from Loughaderra, Castlemartyr, Co Cork and Patrick Tobin from Comeragh Park, the Glen, Cork were both charged with four offences arising from the seizure of €90,000 worth of cocaine and €10,000 worth of cannabis.
Garda Peter Moran of Cobh Garda Station gave evidence of arrest, charge and caution in relation to both men, and he told the court that neither man made any reply when each of the four charges were put to them after caution.
Gardaí objected to bail in respect of both men and Mr Long's solicitor David O'Meara said he was reserving his position in relation to bail and Judge Colm Roberts remanded Mr Long in custody to appear at Midleton District Court today.
Gardaí also objected to bail in relation to Mr Tobin and he was remanded in custody to appear again at Mallow District Court on November 8th by video link.
