Gangster David Waldron has lost a four year battle with CAB - and must now hand over a luxury mansion and other assets worth E3M.
The judge said he agreed with the Chief Bureau officer that Waldron has been a major player in the distribution and sale of drugs in Dublin since the year 2000 - and that “this activity has been the mainstay of his means, income and lifestyle during this period. “I think it establishes why the bureau was established and more importantly it sends a message to the community of the value and the work the Criminal Assets Bureau is doing in their area. It’s not just the money we are taking off them but the houses of these individuals.”
In today’s judgement, the Judge accepted the submissions of the CAB which said Waldron used money from the proceeds of crime to purchase Riverforest and Ratoath Road - and to refurbish them.
