A GARDA WHISTLEBLOWER has said that the “dogs on the street” knew what was going on in Athlone over alleged gardaí collusion with drug dealers.
Asked by Judge Ryan if he felt that “in a lot of cases that the small fry were being targeted and that the big fish were being perhaps left off the list”, the witness agreed. The intelligence entry on the Pulse system led to a series of extensive reports over the following years and the tribunal is to investigate whether this constituted the targeting or discrediting of Garda Keogh, tribunal counsel Patrick Marrinan said.
Garda Keogh said that the source was not a paid informant and that he was within his rights not to register them as such on Pulse. Garda Keogh said he wanted gardaí to know that he wasn’t putting “just any mickey mouse stuff on Pulse” and that this was about “collusion on heroin”.
