A woman has been bailed after being detained by detectives investigating the seizure of £80,000 of drugs in County Down earlier this week.

In a PSNI search of commercial premises in Conlig, County Down on Monday, officers uncovered suspected amphetamines, cocaine, ecstasy tablets, a bulking agent and drugs paraphernalia.

Detectives from the Organised Crime Branch then made the arrest on Wednesday.

The 38-year-old woman was questioned at Bangor police station, but has since been released on police bail pending further enquiries.
