Two Portarlington men have been charged following the seizure of cocaine worth an estimated €105,000.

Anthony Quinn, 33, with an address listed at Camira, Mountmellick, Co Laois and Dylan Carmody, 25, with an address listed at 46 Kilmalogue Park in Portarlington were brought before Judge Desmond Zaidanat Naas District Court on Thursday, January 4.

It is alleged that the men had drugs for sale or supply, at a property in Grangenolvin, Kilkea, Co Kildare on November 30 last.

Garda Sergeant David Hanrahan added that the drugs were found following a search conducted on the property by gardaí.

As directions from the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) were not ready on the latest court date, Judge Zaidan adjourned the case to June 20, to allow time for DPP directions.

The judge remanded both Mr Quinn and Mr Carmody on continuing bail until the case resumes.
