Gardai Re-Launch Strategy Aimed At Tackling Local Drug Dealing

Gardai say hundreds of extra officers will target street level drug dealers in towns and villages in Wicklow and around the country,  as part of a local anti-drugs strategy.

Operation Tara, which was rolled out in part last year, is focused on disrupting the business model of gangs.

Garda commissioner Drew Harris says the hope is this will give communities more confidence in the police force.
