Gangland figure threatened to shoot robbery accused, court hears

A jury has heard that a man accused of plotting to steal from a cash-in-transit van had been told by Eamonn Dunne that he would be shot if he did not get involved.

Detective Sergeant Peter Oates told Alan Toal BL, defending, that he did not know that Joseph Warren had later told gardaí he had been acting under duress and that Dunne would “take him out” if he didn’t turn up that day.
