Hundreds of litres of beer, wine and spirits worth €3000 have been seized at Dublin Port.

The alcohol was found hidden in furniture when officers stopped and searched a van getting off a ferry from Holyhead this morning.

There were 203 litres of beer, 89 litres of wine and approximately 22 litres of spirits.

The driver, a man in his fifties, has been questioned on suspicion of smuggling alcohol.

The Latvian-registered van was seized and later released on payment of a compromise penalty.

Revenue is asking anyone with information regarding the smuggling or sale of illicit alcohol or tobacco products to contact its confidential phone-line on 1800 295 295.
