A dopey Irish truck driver got caught in a web of lies after a receipt for a bottle of whiskey he purchased was found next to a €3.5 million load of heroin.
Edmundas Bruzas (56) from Arklow, Co Wicklow was on Monday jailed for over 12 years after he was caught with the massive stash of heroin hidden in a secret compartment in the cab of his truck earlier this year.
Bruzas, who is originally from Lithuania, initially claimed he knew nothing about 60 tape-wrapped blocks of heroin hidden in his cab.
