The Regency Hotel murder trial has heard evidence about a video clip circulating on YouTube of Kinahan Cartel member David Byrne lying dead "in a prone state" with a voice saying "f**k me pink, there's no way they're guards" after gunmen were observed dressed as members of the Emergency Response Unit.

Gerard 'The Monk' Hutch (59), last of The Paddocks, Clontarf, Dublin 3, denies the murder of Mr Byrne (33) during a boxing weigh-in at the Regency Hotel on February 5, 2016.
