Chief Inspector Claire Hamilton said: “Tackling illegal drug supply is a priority for the Police Service of Northern Ireland. Drugs bring misery to individuals, families and communities.
“Our message is clear and simple: if you see or know of anyone who is dealing drugs in your local area, then contact us on 101 or make a report online via our website.
“Information can also be provided to the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 which is 100% anonymous and gives people the power to speak up and stop crime.”
