Tribunal to include second garda’s allegations against force

A second garda’s allegations against senior members of the force and state agencies will be included in the tribunal into the alleged smear campaign against Garda whistleblowers.

The Dáil will today debate the terms of the tribunal, which is to centre on how Sergeant Maurice McCabe and now Garda Keith Harrison were allegedly undermined by management.

Ministers yesterday met Garda Harrison, who claims he was victimised by other gardaí after arresting a plain-clothes member of the drugs squad for drink driving.
