CAB told solicitor Gerald Kean that man wounded in Regency shooting was a client, jury told

Solicitor Gerald Kean has told a High Court jury he only learned that a man wounded during the Regency Hotel shooting was a client of his practice when officers of the Criminal Assets Bureau called to his office weeks after the shooting seeking documents about a house purchased by the man.

His office acted in 2015 for Sean McGovern in the purchase of a house at Kildare Road, Crumlin, for €155,000 cash and the CAB officers told him on March 10, 2016 the same man was wounded in the Regency Hotel shooting the previous month, he said.
