Walker contacted gardaí after finding suspected consignment of drugs on isolated Donegal beach
The man then contacted gardaí to alert them of his find.
All the coastline of Europe was vulnerable to drug smugglers, but there were huge logistics involved in smuggling, he said, adding there needed to be people on the ground, in warehouses and in transport planning. Success in arresting drug smugglers depended on patrols by the Naval Service and the Air Corps, he added.
“What normally happens is they will load the drugs on a very large vessel, [it] could be a vessel carrying cars. And at some point in the Atlantic, they will be offloaded to what they call a daughter vessel, which is a smaller vessel, possibly a fishing vessel. And that’s where it gets dangerous.
