Detective Inspector Brennan said:
“This search is evidence of our continuing commitment to tackling the harm caused by drugs in our communities.
North Antrim UDA are involved in all forms of organised criminality and look to control local communities, stopping people giving information to police, leaving them free to continue to exploit ordinary members of the public.
The PCTF are working to disband this criminal organisation and will continue to listen to communities and act on information they provide, so I would encourage members of the public with information regarding drug dealing and any form of criminality to call us on 101.
