DPP considers evidence in Lisa Smith case
The Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) was last night weighing up whether there is enough evidence to give the green light to charge returned alleged Islamic State supporter Lisa Smith.
Intensive late discussions were being held between senior gardaí and the State prosecutor on the evidence against the former member of the Defence Forces. Sources said counter-terrorism officers were trying to get the case “over the line” and reach the threshold set by the DPP in order to direct a prosecution now.
