Garda intelligence: ‘Imminent’ danger of revenge gang violence

Garda intelligence has stated that there is an “imminent” danger of a revenge attack on members of the Kinahan crime cartel, the Irish Examiner understands.

Garda bosses have assembled a 24-hour security operation in the Crumlin and Drimnagh area of Dublin after headquarters raised the threat level.

Roaming high-visibility and armed checkpoints, backed up by air support, have been put in place since Monday of last week.
