‘BREAK DOWN COUGHLAN’S DOOR’

GARDAÍ have been given High Court approval to break into the lavish home of Howard Holdings king-pin Greg Coughlan, if necessary, to arrest him over unpaid loans of more than €28 million.

The Kinsale resident, whose whereabouts are unknown, has failed to obey court orders aimed at executing a judgment against him for the unpaid property loans.

Yesterday, gardaí told the High Court they had called to his multimillion-euro home at Fastnet, Ardbrack, Kinsale, Co Cork, 10 times but were not allowed entry.
