Battle for control may have sparked Cork murder; Gardaí appeal for help to trace getaway route
A battle among a new generation of Real IRA members to control its drugs trade, racketeering, and money-laundering operations may have lead to the killing of dissident republican Aidan O’Driscoll, garda sources believe.
Gardaí were not aware of any threat to the life of Mr O’Driscoll, who was gunned down on the outskirts of Cork City on Wednesday, and have appealed for help tracing the movements of three cars they believe were used by his killers.
