TD ‘must raise claims with watchdog’

The Garda Representative Association (GRA) has hit out at a TD for raising allegations of misconduct in the Dáil, and not with GSOC or the Garda Commissioner.

Sligo-Leitrim TD Martin Kenny had told the Dáil on Thursday he was aware of further garda malpractice in his own constituency.

The Sinn Féin TD claimed gardaí had engaged active criminals as informants and used informers to entrap people.
