Haul of 220,000 ecstasy tablets hits Gilligan gang fugitive Mitchell

GARDAÍ yesterday dealt a major blow to a fugitive member of the John Gilligan gang.

The seizure of 220,000 ecstasy tablets in Dublin’s north inner city is also thought to be linked with last week’s gangland murder of William O’Regan.

The haul, valued at €2.2-€2.8m on the street, is believed to have been trafficked into the country by Peter Mitchell.
