The investigation into the gangland murder of the brother of crime boss, Gerry “The Monk” Hutch, is proving “long and complex”, an inquest has heard.

Detective Inspector Aidan Flanagan told a sitting of Dublin District Coroner’s Court that the Garda inquiry into the fatal shooting of Eddie Hutch (58) six-and-a-half years ago is still ongoing.
