Witnesses disagree on May Day events
An expert witness told a jury at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court that Garda Paul Daly hit a protester with his baton on the junction of Parliament St and Dame St during the "Reclaim the Streets" demonstration on May Day 2002.
Mr Andrew Laws, a consultant forensic imagery analysts, was giving evidence in the trial of Gda Daly and Garda Fergus Hogan, both attached to Pearse Street Garda Station. They have pleaded not guilty to assault causing harm to Mr Emmet Bunting (aged 28) of Collins Avenue Dublin, on May 6, 2002.
