FOUR MEN HAVE been arrested after gardaí seized €52,000 worth of benzodiazepines and prescription drugs in Waterford.
Gardaí stopped a car at Grannagh, Waterford on Friday.
Following a search of the car two buckets of loose suspected D10 (benzodiazepines) and a box of prescription drugs, all subject to analysis, were seized.
The seized drugs have an estimated street value of €52,000, according to gardaí.
