    The man had a GIM on him so he`ll say the gun was for self defence. It doesn`t matter what the Gardai knew or didn`t know,

    they`ll have to prove it in court which is a whole new ball game.
    What a load of rubbish!! This isn't the states, ye can't just carry a gun!!

    Fair play to the Gardai on this one, if the hit had of went ahead in a packed pub during the Ireland game there would have been carnage.

    paul zambra and anthony ocallaghan were caught in similar circumstances to the guys that were caught yesterday. They were in seperate cars and zambra had 2 guns and a canister of petrol in the car he was driving both were under surveillance for a number of day prior to the incident. They ended up getting charged with possession of firearms with intent to endanger life, zambra was sentenced to ten years while ocallaghan got 12 since he had a prior conviction for firearms offences

    Link entered without the http:// bit gets somehow concatenated with a boards prefix for someone using touch site e.g.

    http://touch.boards.ie/thread/2057557342/142/www.sundayworld.com/news/courts/victim-of-pub-brawl-refused-to-make-complaint-court-hears

    Go to the address bar of the error page and backspace everything in front of the expected link

    Here is the link

    The guards didn't know who the target was yesterday. It only really emerged who it was today. But it's safe to say they knew something was afoot and they were ready for it; so it was no fluke.
    Don't know if they'll get charges against the fella in the car that had no gun in it, but the other fella is goosed. Although, as has been stated before, it will probably be with possession with intent to endanger life.
    The people arrested would not be the well known faces of this gang at all, but cops would know all about one of them, at least, and probably the second.
    I don't think the target was southside. More likely a pub in the north inner city.

    He was also the target of another high profile pub shooting, fool would really wanna stay away from the pub if he wants to live long. Dublin is a small city and with the amount of times hes been in the paper everyone will know who he is the second he walks in the door and there is always a good chance someone will have loose contacts to the other crowd and be wanting a few bob since people are struggling the recession is far from over. They would sell him down the toilet for a few quid to buy their kids that little bit extra for Christmas and that clown doesn't even realize that. If he doesn't cop on I cant see him lasting to new years.

    Or he could make use of it all and set up an ambush.

    As expected, one released without charge and one due in court in a couple of hours over the arrests on Saturday.

    Really? Its just around the corner from Liam Byrnes place and an awful lot of security on the house - the occupant (and I presume victim) isn't baking cup cakes for a living.

    Separate feud. Although there was rumours of the fat fella being involved in the shooting dead of his brother years ago

    Looks like the intended target on the foiled hit attempt wasn't a Hutch? It is reported that it was someone who has already survived two attempts on his life, he was boozing with pals on Saturday when, unknown to him, a hit squad was heading over to whack him.

    It'll be interesting to hear the name of the guy that's in court today. Will it be an inner circle cartel player or another disposable gillie?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,915 ✭✭✭The flying mouse


    Its saying it was keith murtagh who was the intended target ,its on twitter by Padraig o Reilly, Jesus that lad want to move out as that's the third attempt on him now.

    Jesus. He's not learning his lesson. or maybe getting shot before has left him with short term memory loss.?!

    No relation.

    Ah ok.
    I didn't mean the brother though, was thinking the brother of someone injured. I'd imagine he's the one the papers are reporting as partying with the Irish fans in France?!

    Some papers saying the target for Saturday was KM. Others are saying it was RH. Where are they getting their info from? How come a lot of the time, they can't agree on a story?

    I guess a lot of it is conjecture really. Who knows they could have been on the way to carry out something related to the Crumlin drimnagh feud for all we know.
