DPP directions are still awaited in the case of a man and woman charged in connection with the seizure of €280,000 worth of cocaine in Nenagh last May.

Simone Hogan (28) of Ard Cruidín, Nenagh, is charged with possession of a controlled substance and possession for the purpose of sale or supply, contrary to the Misuse of Drugs Act, at Ard Cruidín on May 19.

Sean Hannon (29) of Milford Manor Green, Clondalkin, Dublin, is charged with possession of a controlled substance and possession for the purpose of sale or supply, contrary to the Misuse of Drugs Act, at the Nenagh Ormond RFC car park and at Ard Cruidín on the same date.
