    I wonder what type of money the average 'foot soldier' for want of a better term makes a year?

    Have a look on google maps at Byrne's house on Raleigh Square (its the second one in off the road - can't miss it).

    It has more security features than Fort Knox and the small window panes look like Obama's limo.

    yeah, what the heck is that in the back garden?
    some crazy playground for spoilt kids?
    some extentions out back too.

    Excuse my silliness but how do you look in the back garden or are you pulling our leg ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,863 ✭✭✭✭inforfun


    I am sure i would get the permits for that just as easy as he got them.

    Seems to be a self contained village! I think someone is sunbathing in it:)

    The Panic Room in one of the extensions I guess.

    Wonder if the velux in the roof is bullet proof too? Doesn't look it - he hasn't banked on Spiderman attacking him :):)

    Exactly what I was thinking!

    It's a big slide, if you go round the side you can see it popping over the fence.

    Nice lot of security cameras out the front, what does he need them for? - to stop unauthorized use of the slide?

    LOL - great spot.

    Some extensions to the side and back. CAB could turn that place into the childrens hospital with the wing on the side.

    Seen armed Gardaí and CAB raiding a house earlier, They really take no messing when it comes down to the serious stuff in fairness.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,178 ✭✭✭bajer101


    They won't have that house for long. CAB have been building a case against them for a while and recent events served to expedite the case. CAB may be a bit slow to get cases finalised, but they are like a juggernaut once they get going. They don't need to hurry as they keep track of all the assets and will get them eventually.

    The betting slip that was found would have been used as an attempt to launder money. Lots of bets get placed, with the losing bets written off and the winning bets used in an attempt to show how a legitimate €5k was "luckily" transformed into "clean" €500k through a serious of winning bets, with no record of the losing bets.

    What I want to know is did he put the money on Liverpool or United, the match is tonight :pac:

    Liverpool , by the way I wonder what the state do with the docket? I'm thinking they would contact paddy power and void the bet and give the 38k to CAB.

    Let the CAB lads go for a few pints and let the bet ride. Be grand.

    I'm sure there's due process to go through - doubt they could void the bet unless they're granted possession in the next few hours.

    PP or whoever (more likely some associate bookie than a chain I'd say) might want to watch who's coming through the front door tomorrow morning if Liverpool win......


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 173 ✭✭DamienDarts


    Rte news said it was a paddy power betting slip last night.
    It was also RTE who said the bet was on a Liverpool win.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 768 ✭✭✭wardides


    Just aside there's very little chance it's a betting slip for a high street bookies. You try going into your local PP and asking to place a 38K bet on Liverpool tonight. Unless the customer was very well known, which could be the case I guess.

    EDIT: Although now I think about it, it would have to be an official bookmakers in order to launder the cash wouldn't it?

    What about the former Sinn Fein counciler' house being raided today? Jonathan Dowdall.
    Any link?

    Of course not - there's no link between SF and crime - Gerry and Mary Lou said so ;)

    The wall with the foot long spiky railings on top must be the best at preventing burglary. Often there is threads here on boards asking if you can put broken bottles etc to stop people climbing over. This is illegal to do, but those railings are the business. Learn from the best ;)

    I was expecting a moat behind the hedge in the front but just manicured lawns instead - wonder if they've got land mines under them?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,925 ✭✭✭RainyDay


    Yes, because investigations like that take time. I wonder do the accountant and solicitor know the activities that their client are involved in? Any charges pending for these white collar scumbags? They are as much a part of the criminal class as those who handsomely reward them for their efforts..

    I noted that the Indo article this morning named the car dealer that was raided, but didn't name the accountant or solicitor. Double standards?

    Hard to know, they could say they won the €38k on the horses and used that for the bet ;)

    Hmmmm... whereabouts in the North inner city? There are several supremely dodgy pubs around Amiens St, Summerhill and Ballybough, but that seems too deep in Hutch territory for a Kinahan-controlled pub. There are one or two rough spots in or around the Smithfield and Stoneybatter (up around the NCR) areas...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,637 ✭✭✭✭nacho libre


    Is the Blue Lion in Summerhill still around? That used to be a well known haunt of north side gangsters back in the nineties. There was an attempt on Gerry Hutch's life there way back in 1998.

    Just as a point of interest, I am assuming that there is oversight / due process etc built into CAB and the powers it has or can someone explain how that works?

    Dont get me wrong, I think the principle of confiscating the ill gotten gains of criminals is good for society but just curious that there is general protection built-in that those powers dont get abused.
