Two men and two women are held in relation to blaze at the Ross Lake House Hotel last December

The Ross Lake House hotel in Rosscahill had been earmarked for housing 70 asylum seekers.

Two women, also in their 40s and 50s, have been arrested for alleged offences contrary to the Offences Against the State Act, 1998, and are being detained under Section 30 of the Offences Against the State Act, 1939.‘I left Harold’s Cross because I wanted a kind of financial freedom that wasn’t on offer to me there’

All four people were involved in protests around the proposed use of the building before it was set alight. These protests attracted far-right activists from other parts of the country, but the suspects arrested this week are from the local area, sources said.
