‘Gardaí catching up with tiger kidnap criminals’

GARDA Commissioner Noel Conroy yesterday said the tide was turning on tiger kidnappings.

Speaking a day after Thursday’s tiger kidnapping, the garda boss expressed confidence that criminals behind the robberies would be brought before the courts.

He described as “significant” the arrest of nine people in relation to the €500,000 robbery in north Dublin, seven of whom were still in custody last night.
