A Revenue detector dog sniffed out a huge haul of cigarettes at Dublin Port last week.
Officers discovered a whopping 540,000 cigarettes that have an estimated retail value of approximately €426,500, representing a potential loss to the Exchequer of almost €334,000.
The smuggled cigarettes, branded ‘Sobraine’ and ‘Dunhill’, were discovered on Friday concealed in metal boxes in a consignment which arrived from Cologne, Germany.
