You can read the warrant. They don't have to give you a copy. They will usually go through whatever they have taken with the householder before they leave. They don't have to supply a list of seized items.

Well it depends what the search warrant is , if its to take away your laptop or something and you have drugs laying around say cannabis they can't take it away as they don't have a search warrant for it pacifically but any stronger and I'd say they would take it away , I only know this because my friends exs brother got his laptop taken away and couldn't take his green

Alanya122

They took away our laptop's, and whatever else, cheeky pricks, I was alone as my two apartment friends were out. The head garda nearly ran over me when .making his way Into the apartment I walked after him saying what are you at, he told me to sit. That was in the sitting room, I said I want to call a solicitor, he said have you a phone which I replied no, my friend took it with him, I asked him again could I make a call to my solicitor, he asked me who my solicitor was, when I told him he said no. Which I retorted I can make the call from next door neighbour, he ignored me. Later he placed me in a bedroom with another garda. He came in around 1 hour later, I was frightened and upset , I just had a treble bypass, which I told him earlier..noway he shoved a piece of paper in front of me and told me to sign it..which I did hurriedly. He left the bedroom, 5 minutes later I heard no noise, they had gone, leaving my front door open. Didn't even close the door. I was a hostage in my own room. Afraid to even ask to go to the toilet. Now I know why gardai ain't too popular.

Omg that's awful and I'm so sorry to hear that and especially so after having a treble bypass as well like that was out of order for the gardaí to do that. Also when you said could you ring your solicitor and when asked who it was they declined you like I've never heard that before , report that as well , did you get their names or anything as you can also report them too , sounds like absolute abuse of power the cops do , but why did they come in the 1st place was it for one of your flat mates or for you exactly?

Alanya122

I really ain't got a clue of what they took as I was held hostage in my bedroom of the apartment with a garda present. Hostage in my own apartment. I have never been in trouble with the law a my life. He earlier refused me a phone call to my solicitor. He did ask me who was my solicitor, when I told him he said no , I said I can make it from my neighbours next door, I wasn't under arrest, he still said no. !!?

Your friend took your phone with them? Really? That alone is suspicious.

You already have a solicitor? Also suspicious.

SupaCat95

There must have been a reason.

Don't listen to anything this poster says, they clearly haven't a clue.

Alanya122

My name.and my two friends that share the apartment names he said was on the warrant so he said, I tried to read it but my eyes Were not the best since the operation so I asked him to read it, I couldn't understand what he said to tell you the truth. He said drugs lol. No bloody way. He see.ed to have his eye on the 3 laptops though. I am still in shock. Absolutely seems to be no boundaries to their power. Googled their search powers. Only thing that I came up with was that they shouldn't confined me to any room in my apartment, but hey I was the only witness.

Alanya122

I'm a football coach, I don't touch drugs. With the exception of prescribed drugs after my treble bypass. My two friends are good people as I know them both for q5 years.

Alanya122

A reason for me being confined to my room, or that I wasn't allowed call a solicitor, or that they were searching for drugs or that they left without informing me and leaving my front door open. !!!!

Yeh and as if their solicitor is sitting at home awaiting a call from someone who’s gaf has been called into 🙄

Alanya122

Well if they had found anything they would have taken me to the police station. Joe Duffy??? Who is he.. ?

Alanya122

Is he a solicitor as mine is a corporate solicitor. Jeez ireland is getting as bad as Amerca. Lawyer's and therapist lol.

con747

OP maybe take your triple bypass meds and chill out.

Alanya122

No. He was probably in a pub. But good point.

Alanya122

Old age pensioners don't coach pro football. At least I don't know one. Thanks for reminding me of my heart meds. Ps. The first heart surgery I had was when I was 8years old.

JVince

Don't feed the trolls

Alanya122

Yes..he borrowed my phone as he needed it. Maybe that was suspicious to you. But that ain't grounds for the garda acting like gestapo.

Alanya122

Thank you

Alanya122

Ah that Joe Duffy. Lol. Thanks anyway.

Alanya122

Never got there names, I was in shock. They said drugs, I never took unprescibed drugs ever. Fact. Plus the two lad's definitely don't mess around with that stuff. Thank you.

Alanya122

Yes he said drugs. No way.

Alanya122

May I get his Name and address. I never have been in trouble either. Thanks

Alanya122

Yes. Thing is he never showed me a list of what he took. Thanks again.

Dazler97

EH yes I do ,don't know what your talking about

Dazler97

Also don't bother with joe Duffy hes a clown ring adrian kennedy on Monday he's much better

Alanya122

So pray tell. What do you find strange. The behaviour of the garda, because I found it unbelievable also. I'd be thinking like you also a few days ago. Very Strange until it happens to you or someone close to you. Unbelievable I'd say.

Alanya122

Lol. Very good. Maybe Trump will volunteer for it. Good one.
