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.
