Sacked garda ordered to vacate residents from 'fire-risk' properties

The High Court has further adjourned proceedings brought by Dublin City Council against a dismissed garda aimed at securing the vacation of properties believed by the Fire Service to represent a "clear and present danger" to their occupants.

Last month a High Court judge granted the Council a number of injunctions directing the landlord of the properties, Kevin Galvin, Furrypark Road, Killester to ensure all residents were vacated from 116 Cabra Park, 73 Cabra Park and from a unit to the rear of 41 Phibsboro Road.
