Gardaí receive one million euros in a van in Kildare.
Milliún euro faighte ag Gardaí i veain i gCill Dara.
Gardaí have recovered over a million euros in cash after stopping a van on the M7 motorway in Co Kildare at around 6.30am.
Tá os cionn milliún euro in airgead tirim faigthe ag na Gardaí tar éis dóibh veain a stopadh ar mhótarbhealach an M7 i gCo Chill Dara ag thart ar 6.30 ar maidin.
The driver of the van – a 45-year-old Lithuanian man – has been arrested on suspicion of involvement in money laundering on behalf of a criminal gang.
Gadhadh tiománaí an veain – fear 45 bliain de bhunadh na Liotuáine – agus amhras faoi bhaint a bheith aige le sciúradh airgid ar son bhuíon coirpeach.
He is being questioned at the Garda station in Portlaoise.
Tá sé á cheistiú i stáisiún na nGardaí i bPort Laoise.
After the Gardaí stopped the van and arrested the driver, they found € 10,000 in cash elsewhere in the midlands.
Tar éis do na Gardaí an veain a stopadh agus an tiománaí a ghabháil, fuair siad €10,000 in airgead tirim in áit eile i lár tíre.
Gardaí believe the money found today belongs to a gang of drug dealers based in Ballyfermot, Dublin.
Creideann na Gardaí go mbaineann an t- airgead a fritheadh inniu le buíon mangairí drugaí atá bunaithe i mBaile Formaid i mBaile Átha Cliath.
Last October, the Gardaí found € 4 million owned by the same gang in a remote house in Co Kerry.
I mí Dheireadh Fómhair seo caite, fuair na Gardaí €4 mhilliún ar leis an mbuíon chéanna é i dteach in áit iargúlta i gCo Chiarraí.
