Judge rules that gardaí did not act unreasonably during alleged 'assault' incident

Following a Garda Síochana Ombudsman Commission (GSOC) investigation, both gardaí were charged with assault under Section 2 of the Non-Fatal Offences Against the Person Act, 1997.

Gardaí who were trying to help an elderly lady, distressed after her car was clamped in Cork, were later accused of assault by the clamper.

Tomasz Luczak alleged that his finger had been injured when he was arrested after being resistant to showing Sergeant Kieran Kelleher and Garda Richard O’Sullivan his driving licence or giving his name and address when requested.
