The attendance of a Gsoc investigator at a party in the company of Gerry Hutch on the day that Hutch was acquitted of murder comes under the Gubu label.

Gubu was an acronym coined by Conor Cruise O’Brien in 1982 following an incident in which a murderer was found in the home of the State’s attorney general.
