Gardaí are bracing themselves for a possible repeat of the violence from far-right extremists that was witnessed at an ‘anti-mask’ protest three weeks ago.

It comes as detectives are said to be making “good progress” in their investigation into an assault during that protest outside the Dáil and hope to submit a file to the DPP soon.
