Detectives from the PSNI Terrorism Investigation Unit have carried out a search of an address on Vicinage Park in north Belfast.

Items including laptops, electronics and herbal cannabis were seized during the operation which was focused on dissident republican activity.

As a result a 28 year old man was issued with a Community Resolution Notice for possession of a Class B controlled drug.

Detective Inspector Martin Cush said:  “Today’s operation is further evidence that those involved in dissident republican activity are actively involved in criminality, including drugs,  operating under the convenient flag of ‘paramilitarism’.

"The reality however is that they are criminals who will exploit any circumstances they can for their own gain. Be under no illusion, these so-called paramilitaries destroy lives and harm our communities. "
