A FURTHER TWO people have been arrested by gardaí investigating feud-related activity in the Dublin area.Earlier, gardaí said they had arrested three men – aged between 24 and 38 - over conspiracy to murder. Gardaí from Special Crime Operations apprehended the men yesterday in the north inner city and Finglas areas.
