A man has appeared in court after cocaine worth €750,000 was seized at Dublin Airport.

Over 11 kilos of the drug was found as a result of routine profiling.

The suitcase of a 25-year-old Irish man who had arrived on a flight from Paris was searched.

Four apparently empty rucksacks were found which had a concealment of cocaine sewn into the back panel.

The man was arrested and appeared in court this morning.

He was charged with the sale, supply and importation of drugs and was remanded in custody for a week.
