Intended target survived gun attacks

Convicted drug boss Johnny McNamara, the target for the attack which led to the murder of Shane Geoghegan, lived at No 6 Clonmore, Kilteragh, just doors from where Shane shared a house with his partner, Jenna Barry.

Kilteragh is directly across the road from Garryowen rugby ground where Mr Geoghegan was a hugely popular member and thirds team captain.

When approached at his Kilteragh home yesterday, Mr McNamara, 36, told the Irish Examiner: “I don’t want to speak.”
