Four people have been charged following a major police operation targeting alleged drug supply across the New South Wales–Queensland border region, with investigators seizing drugs, firearms, ammunition and police uniform items at a property in Banora Point.

Police allege officers seized approximately four kilograms of illicit drugs, six rifles, ammunition and items resembling Queensland Police uniform equipment during the operation.

The investigation focused on suspected drug-supply activity operating across the border between northern New South Wales and Queensland. Banora Point, located near Tweed Heads and the Queensland border, was identified as part of the investigation.

Three men and one woman have been charged following the police operation. The charges relate to alleged drug offences and possession of prohibited items.

The seizure of firearms has added another significant element to the investigation. Police alleged that six rifles and ammunition were located during the operation. Authorities are continuing to examine the weapons and other items seized as part of the investigation.

Police are also investigating the circumstances surrounding the possession of Queensland Police uniform items. The presence of such items has prompted further inquiries as investigators establish how they came to be at the property and whether they were connected to any other alleged offences.

The operation forms part of ongoing efforts by law-enforcement agencies to target organised drug activity operating around the NSW–Queensland border.

The border region presents particular challenges for police because offenders can potentially move between jurisdictions, requiring cooperation between different police commands and agencies.

The four accused people will face the court over the allegations. As with all criminal matters, the charges remain allegations and have not been proven in court.

Investigators are continuing to assess evidence seized during the operation, including the drugs, firearms, ammunition and police-related items.

The investigation may also determine whether additional people or offences are connected to the alleged drug-supply network.

Banora Point is part of the Tweed region, an area that experiences significant movement between northern NSW and southeast Queensland. Police operations in the region regularly involve cooperation between agencies because of the proximity of the state border.

Authorities have not indicated that the investigation is complete, and further developments may follow as forensic examinations and inquiries continue.

The latest report was published on 1 October 2026, making the operation one of today's newly reported crime developments in northern New South Wales.
