Smuigleáil Drugaí

Bhí físeán suimiúil sna meáin le déanaí.

Bhí sé cosúil le radharc ó scannán aicsin.

De réir ailt a bhaineann le Nuacht RTÉ:

Ghabh na húdaráis seilbh ar lastlong sa Mhuir Cheilteach inniu mar chuid d’fhiosrúchán faoi smuigleáil trasnáisiúnta drugaí.

Chuaigh na húdaráis ar bord na loinge amach ó chósta Chorcaí nuair nár ghlac an criú le treoir uathu.

Deir na Gardaí go bhfuil lear mór drugaí ar bord na loinge, an MV Matthew, atá cláraithe i bPanama.

Bhí triúr fear ar an long gafa agus tá siad á gceistiú i stáisiúin Ghardaí

Seasca (60), caoga (50), agus tríocha a haon (31) bliain d’aois atá an triúr fear. Coinneoidh muid súil ghéar ar an scéal seo.

Ghabh na húdaráis seilbh ar lastlong sa Mhuir Cheilteach inniu mar chuid d’fhiosrúchán faoi smuigleáil trasnáisiúnta drugaí.

The authorities seized a cargo ship in the Celtic Sea today as part of an inquiry about transnational drug smuggling.

Chuaigh na húdaráis ar bord na loinge amach ó chósta Chorcaí nuair nár ghlac an criú le treoir uathu.

The authorities boarded the ship off the coast of cork when the crew did not take direction from them.
