Police seize illicit medicines as part of crack down on online drugs trade

Police in Northern Ireland have seized around 140,000 illegal and unlicensed tablets and other medicinal products purchased online. They included human hormone treatments, the tranquiliser diazepam, pregabalin and the stimulant modafinil. The PSNI supported a major international coordinated police action targeting the sale of counterfeit and illicit medicines. David Henderson, a detective inspector from the forces organised crime unit, said: This sends out a clear message that globally law enforcement is trying to do something about the supply of these illicit medicines. Multiple packages of drugs were seized during searches carried out during the week-long Operation Pangea earlier this month. Officers entered a terraced property off the Crumlin Road in North Belfast in pursuit of illegal medicines.
