MCD to complain to Garda Ombudsman over concert inquiry

Music promoters MCD are expected to make a formal complaint to the Garda Ombudsman Commission this week over the findings of a Garda inquiry into last month’s Swedish House Mafia concert.

Nine people were stabbed and 33 arrested at the Phoenix Park concert by the electronic dance music trio on Jul 7.

On Friday, gardaí issued a statement claiming they had warned MCD about concerns regarding alcohol sales, gate-opening times, and security ahead of the event.
