FOUR GARDAÍ WHO have been suspended since 2020 will learn next week if a judge will allow their suspensions to be lifted while the High Court considers a judicial review of their cases.
Ms Justice Niamh Hyland heard this morning from barrister James Kane who was appearing with Hughes Murphy and co solicitors acting for the four gardaí. Garda Paul Baynham, who was stationed at Henry Street Garda Station in Limerick was granted permission in June to pursue judicial review of the suspension decisions relating to him.
‘Squaring’ The investigation concerns the alleged “squaring” of fixed charge notices which were not written up, not prosecuted in court or else cancelled on the system.O’Neill denies all wrongdoing. He faces charges of attempting to pervert the course of justice, which has yet to be heard at Limerick Circuit Criminal Court.
They say they were told the NBCI was looking only for evidence connected to Superintendent O’Neill. They claim that they were later interviewed under caution and instructed to hand over their notebooks. Their pleadings state that the garda Commissioner, Drew Harris, has acted outside his powers and in breach of fair procedures.
