Tribunal hears Garda whistleblower's partner voluntarily left home three times after rows

The partner of a garda whistleblower who claimed he was subject to harassment and intimidation voluntarily left the home where she was living with him on three occasions, the Charleton tribunal has heard.

Hugh Hartnett SC said that his instructions from his client, Ms Marisa Simms, were that she was not thrown out, but had voluntarily left the home at night "on approximately three occasions" after rows with Garda Keith Harrison.
