Man jailed for 'tiger kidnapping'

A former security worker who staged a 'tiger kidnapping' which involved his housemates being bound with cable ties and threatened at gunpoint has been given a eight-year sentence with two suspended.

Darryl Caffrey (aged 35) of Cherrypark, Rivervalley, Swords, a former Chubb Ltd employee who had worked in the cash-in-transit vans for the company, provided information to a criminal gang both in relation to his employer and the personal details of the two men he shared a home with.
