Former Commissioner Faces Calls To Confirm Or Deny Allegations

FORMER COMMISSIONER FACES CALLS TO CONFIRM OR DENY ALLEGATIONS

The controversy surrounding the former Garda Commissioner Martin Callinan is expected to be raised in the Dáil this afternoon.

The former Garda Commissioner is facing growing calls to confirm or deny allegations he tried to discredit the Garda whistle-blower Maurice McCabe in a meeting with Fianna Fáil TD John McGuinness.

Last night, the current Garda Commissioner Nóirín O’Sullivan denied any knowledge of a private meeting between her predecessor and the former chair of the Public Accounts Committee.
