Just a little bit of history
Garda Commissioner Martin Callinan has apologized
unreservedly for any wrongdoing by members of An Garda Síochána highlighted in
the Smithwick Tribunal report but he does not accept its contention that
members of the gardaí place loyalty to the force above honesty…O dear I think
if Smithwick had said loyalty to one and other he might have been more accurate
RED-faced Garda bosses who wanted to discipline the
detective Kieran O'Reilly who played the role of an undercover garda in TV
drama Love/Hate forced into an embarrassing climb down…Looks as if Commissioner
Callinan was totally out of order.
Garda Commissioner
Martin Callinan and the Data Protection Commissioner Billy Hawke’s have written
to the PAC asking it to hand back to gardaí files that were given to it by a
garda whistle blower earlier this month…. Maybe what was in the box scared Callinan … sounds rather undemocratic.
Garda chief warns of 'mass assassinations' if Ombudsman gain
access to classified files
Failure to deal adequately with shell bribery allegations
Justice Minister Alan Shatter is preparing the ground for an
inquiry into how two Roma children were taken from their families by gardai, after
he received a report from Garda Commissioner Martin Callinan….DNA tests
revealed that they were living with their biological parents…. Inquiries all
over the place but nobody disciplined over the abduction of the children
