Officers from the Paramilitary Crime Task Force yesterday carried out a search of a property in north Belfast (February 21).
The search was part of an ongoing investigation into suspected criminality linked to the west Belfast UDA.
Detective Inspector Corrigan said: “A quantity of suspected Class A controlled drugs was seized during the search."
He said the “seizure is a demonstration of the PCTF’s commitment to tackle all types of criminality linked to paramilitaries, in an ongoing effort to rid our communities of the harm these groups cause and of their coercive control”.
Inspector Corrigan added: “Our enquiries remain ongoing and we would like to thank the local community for their continued support.
"We will continue to act on the information you provide us.
