SYDNEY, Jan 21 AAP - A man will face firearms and drug charges in a Sydney court after being arrested by a police strike force investigating a string of major crimes in two states.
Strike Force Tuno 2 detectives arrested the 24-year-old Killarney Heights man over the seizure of drugs and firearms at a storage facility on December 16, 2008.
He was subsequently charged with two counts each of possessing a prohibited drug and supplying a prohibited drug, three counts each of possessing unauthorised firearms and not keeping firearms safe, as well as dealing with the proceeds of crime.
He was refused bail and is expected to appear in Waverley Local Court on Wednesday.
Strike Force Tuno 2 was formed in October 2008 and continues to investigate a number of unsolved homicides in NSW and Queensland.
It comprises detectives from the homicide, gangs, drugs, property crime, fraud, and Middle Eastern organised crime squads.
Two men faced Sydney courts on Tuesday charged by strike force detectives with conspiracy to murder.
