A 26 year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of a number of offences, linked to the supply of class A and C drugs in Belfast.
A number of items were seized including drugs paraphernalia, cash and 800 sanax tablets after two properties were searched in North Belfast last night.
It's believed the drugs may be linked to the West Belfast UDA.
Detective Inspector Lynne Knox from PSNI's Paramilitary Crime Task Force said, "We are committed to restricting the availability of illicit drugs in our communities.
"Information suggests these drugs may have been linked to West Belfast UDA.
"Drug addiction ruins the lives of local people and lines the pockets of paramilitaries who have no thought for anyone in their community.
"The Paramilitary Crime Task Force is dedicated to keeping people safe through disrupting and dismantling these groups."
The suspect remains in police custody.
