Garda 'smuggled camcorder into nightclub', tribunal told

A former member of the gardaí’s elite national surveillance unit today told a tribunal she smuggled a camcorder into a Donegal nightclub during a covert operation to expose liquor licensing law breaches.

Detective Sergeant Noleen Griffin told the Morris Tribunal she was asked by former Det Sgt John White to inspect Frank McBrearty Senior’s Raphoe nightclub in April 1997, when she worked in the county as a then sergeant.
