Photograph: Brendan GleesonA member of a “profoundly infamous” Limerick crime family said he was shocked to learn he was barred from a pub in his native Limerick City, after staff there complained of being “fearful” of his presence in the pub due to his family’s criminal “reputation”.
Dundon appeared as a witness for Anthony Kelly of Southill, Limerick, who lodged an objection to an application by Eamonn O’Rahilly for renewal of a licence to operate the Spotted Dog pub, Limerick city.Man found guilty of rape and murder of Co Donegal backpacker Danielle McLaughlin in India Mr O’Rahilly said he told Kelly he was also barred from the pub, after Kelly asked him if he preferred him to stay away from the pub too.
The publican agreed that despite his concerns, he did not make a complaint to gardai, and that Kelly and Dundon had so far respected the pub ban put in place ten moths ago. Kelly said he objected to Mr O’Rahilly renewing his licence because he had felt “disgraced” over the pub ban, which he felt was “unfair” and “prejudiced” against him.
Dundon told the court he was shocked when he found out he was barred, because, he said, he had been in the pub “numerous times” despite Mr O’Rahilly’s evidence that he had not seen him in the pub before.
