Latest: Councillor brands 'mass eviction' of Cork apartments an 'attempt to profiteer'

A City Councillor in Cork has condemned the "mass eviction" of Leeside Apartments in the city, calling it an "opportunistic attempt to profiteer off the housing emergency".
Solidarity Councillor Fiona Ryan said the move by Lugus Captial, who recently bought the Leeside Apartments off Bachelors Quay and have served eviction notices to all tenants, has said the move was made "in order to get around the rent pressure zone restrictions".
