Garda counsel on ‘red alert’ over Maurice McCabe allegation
The Disclosures Tribunal was told that if the allegations stuck there would be “severe consequences” not just for the officers, but their families and future generations of their families.
The tribunal is examining if former commissioner Nóirín O’Sullivan relied on unjustified grounds to discredit Sgt McCabe at the O’Higgins inquiry in 2015, which was investigating his complaints of poor policing in Cavan/Monaghan and allegations of corruption and malpractice against five senior officers.
