Secret recordings by gardaí investigating Hanley killing plot should be excluded in evidence, court told

Secret recordings from listening devices placed on cars by gardaí investigating the Kinahan cartel should be excluded from a conspiracy to murder trial because there’s a “missing link” in the evidence, a barrister has told a court.

Defence Counsel made the submission today in the trial of Liam Brannigan (37), from Bride Street, Dublin 8, who is charged with conspiring to murder Gary Hanley at a location within the State between September 15 and November 6, 2017.
