MEET the latest recruits in Tasmania's battle against illegal drugs such as ice. Aggie and Yardley are under training to sniff out drugs and cash. The two Labrador pups, both 15 months old, have just arrived at the Police Academy to replace a duo of retiring veterans. They'll be central to a new police effort, Operation Intercept, which aims to target drugs coming into the state by air, sea and mail. Police Minister Rene Hidding said the dogs were the latest arsenal in a multi-pronged approach to busting illegal drug importation, distribution and supply.
