Flanagan warns there is ‘no hiding place’ for gangs

Justice Minister Charlie Flanagan has warned members of the Kinahan and Hutch gangs at the centre of a spate of murders in inner city Dublin they have “no hiding place” and will be tracked down for their “brutal and heinous” murders.

Speaking to reporters at Government Buildings just 48 hours after the latest killing in the capital linked to the ongoing gangland feud, Mr Flanagan said it is essential the violence in the community ends.

Calling on members of the community to provide any information they have available to investigating gardaí in order to protect their neighbourhood as well as the wider public, Mr Flanagan said officers are working “round the clock” to stamp out the turf war.
