GOSC ‘bugging’ security firm visited Garda HQ

The UK surveillance firm called in to carry out bug sweeps at the Garda ombudsman’s offices has revealed it was asked to demonstrate high-level counter-surveillance technology to the Garda.

Verrimus was invited to Garda headquarters in the Phoenix Park in Dublin last year as its experts were separately called in by the watchdog over fears it was being spied on.
