Last Wednesday (March 26, 2025) Revenue officers, as part of an intelligence led operation, supported by detector dog Toby, seized €235,286 in cash and 3,640 cigarettes following searches, under warrant, of four premises in Leitrim and Longford.
The illicit cigarettes have an estimated retail value of over €3,284 representing a potential loss to the Exchequer of approximately €2,600.
Revenue officers were granted detention orders on Thursday, March 27 in respect of the cash seized by Judge Sandra Murphy at Sligo District Court and Judge Adrian Harris at Mullingar District Court. Three men were questioned and investigations are ongoing.
These seizures are part of Revenue’s ongoing operations targeting the shadow economy and the supply of illegal tobacco products. If businesses, or members of the public, have any information regarding smuggling, they can contact Revenue in confidence on the confidential free phone number 1800 295 295.
