Georgian man deported after daring escape bid

A FOREIGN national who was recaptured yesterday after escaping from gardaí during a deportation was due to be evicted last night.

The 21-year-old man, from Georgia, managed to give his garda minders the slip at Dublin Airport just as he was about to be put on a 6.30am flight to Frankfurt.

Despite an intensive garda search of the area, during which the runway was closed, the man could not be found. The search was called off after half an hour to allow flights to resume.
