Three men have pleaded guilty at the non-jury Special Criminal Court to conspiring to bring drugs into Ireland.

Two are from Spain, while the third has an address in Serbia. The charges against each man state that between February 17th, 2024, and March 14th, 2024, they conspired with others to import controlled drugs with a value in excess of €13,000 into Ireland.

At a brief arraignment on Thursday of this week, Mario Angel Del Rio Sanz (45) of no fixed abode in Spain; Anuar Rahui Chairi (42) of Malaga in Spain; and Aleksander Milic (27) of Svetorgorska, Belgrade in Serbia, pleaded guilty to the charges.

Mr Justice Kerida Naidoo, presiding at the three-judge court, ordered probation and governor's reports for each defendant. They will appear before the court again on June 18th.
