The Criminal Assets Bureau has seized motorcycles, cars and cash during a raid on a “heavily fortified compound” in Dublin.

Gardaí said the raid targeted a criminal group aligned to a number of different organised crime gangs around the country.

The search, carried out at the compound in the Crumlin area of the city, involved armed Gardaí, the Air Support Unit and the Customs Dog Unit.
