Criminal Assets Bureau seizes luxury Killarney home 

Operation Tarmac began after a lavish lifestyle, gathered by a small number of local families without any apparent legitimate basis, aroused suspicions

CAB officers seized 'Anfield Manor' on Hazelwood Drive, Ballyspillane, Killarney, on Thursday morning. The large house was raided by members of the Criminal Assets Bureau in the early hours of the morning.

The Criminal Assets Bureau has taken possession of a luxury house in Killarney in the final stage of a five-year investigation into the activities of an organised crime gang.

The investigation, dubbed Operation Tarmac, began after a lavish lifestyle — cars and jewellery, and substantial assets — gathered by a small number of local families without any apparent legitimate basis, aroused suspicions.
