Garda chief to assist British probe into loyalist murder gang

The name of baby Martha O'Neill added to the names of the 33 victims on the Dublin and Monaghan bombings memorial of 17 May 1974 in Talbot Street, Dublin. The Glennane Gang has been linked to atrocities such as the 1974 Dublin and Monaghan bombings, which killed 33 people.

Justice Minister Helen McEntee has directed the Garda commissioner to provide any relevant material to the high-level British police investigation into the notorious Glenanne Gang.

The murderous outfit linked to loyalist paramilitary group the UVF is estimated to have killed up to 120 people in the 1970s and is alleged to have operated with the collusion of British military intelligence and RUC Special Branch.
