A 31-year-old man, previously taken into custody amid inquiries regarding social media posts linked to alleged illegal drug distribution, has been granted bail.

The individual was apprehended on Thursday afternoon in west Belfast following the circulation of an image in a WhatsApp group chat. The group included coaches from roughly 300 local youth football clubs, and the image appeared to display a list of drug prices.

According to reports, the post was removed shortly after it was shared and contained details of meeting locations, accompanied by the warning, "time wasters will be blocked."
