A MAN HAS been arrested in connection with a probe into claims a GSOC investigator attended a party where Gerry ‘The Monk’ Hutch celebrated being cleared of a role in the Regency Hotel attack.“This morning 27 April 2023, Gardaí attached to the Garda National Bureau of Criminal Investigation investigating certain matters referred to An Garda Síochána by the Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission have carried out a search at a domestic residence in Dublin 3.
“A male has been arrested on suspicion of an offence contrary to section 81, Garda Síochána Act 2005.“The male, in his 60′s, is being detained at a Garda Station in the East of the country under section 4 Criminal Justice Act 1984.” Garda investigators established yesterday that a former GSOC officer had attended the party celebrating the release of Gerard Hutch.
The senior investigator had gone to the party on the night Hutch was cleared by the Special Criminal Court of taking part in the murder of David Byrne at the Regency Hotel in 2016. The gardaí began an investigation following a referral from GSOC and the National Bureau of Criminal Investigation is leading the probe.Making a difference A mix of advertising and supporting contributions helps keep paywalls away from valuable information like this article.
