Gilligan's estate to be sold off

Detectives are selling off an Olympic-sized equestrian centre after an epic 16-year battle to seize the assets of one of Ireland’s most notorious criminals.

Convicted drug trafficker John Gilligan’s losing fight with the Criminal Assets Bureau (CAB) will also see one of his houses at Weston Green, Lucan, jointly owned with his son Darren, go on the open market within weeks.
