Four people are to appear in court this morning in connection with the seizure of €660,000 of cannabis in Dublin and Kildare.

Seven men and a woman had been arrested following the discovery of the drugs when two cars were stopped at Celbridge, Co Kildare and later at a follow-up search at an apartment in Adamstown in Dublin on Tuesday.

The three men and one woman will appear before Blanchardstown District Court this morning charged in connection with the seizures.

Another man out of the eight arrested will appear at the same court sitting charged in relation to a separate matter.

The remaining three arrested have been released without charge.
