Senior garda to probe Dublin grenade attacks A SENIOR
garda has been appointed to investigate the source behind a recent spate
of hand grenade attacks in Dublin.
Noel Conroy has requested that the officer also examine the sharp rise
in pipe-bomb incidents in the last year.
Detective Superintendent Pádraig Kennedy from Store Street Garda
Station has been tasked with the job.
There have been three grenade blasts in Dublin in the last seven weeks.
They have been linked with the INLA terrorist group which is supposed
to be under a ceasefire.
Sources believe the grenades could be a spin-off from peace in the North
with explosives bosses eager to off-load military supplies.
The attacks are thought to be linked with Limerick gangs which have connections
both with paramilitary groups and Dublin gangs. |
