Garda partly wins appeal over suspension after relationship with woman in domestic abuse case

Garda had objected to inquiry's refusal to give him prior sight of notes of the woman's interviews

The man lost a challenge at the High Court last May and appealed the matter to the Court of Appeal.

A garda who began a relationship with a woman while investigating her claim of domestic abuse has been partially successful in appealing a High Court decision to dismiss his challenge against his ongoing suspension.

In 2023, a Garda board of inquiry was set up to investigate allegations of serious breaches of discipline against Garda Keith Harrison, all of which he rejected.
