Gardaí to probe circumstances of invalid warrant in Curtain trial

GARDAÍ will carry out an investigation into the circumstances that led to the collapse of the Brian Curtin trial, although they still believe the warrant was valid.

Judge Carroll Moran’s judgment will be studied by senior members, who are then expected to report to the Garda Commissioner Noel Conroy.

“The Garda Síochána fully accept the judgment of the courts and, in this case, will examine the judgment in detail to see how it affects us operationally,” a spokesman said.
