Dwyer worked for Shell Security Company in Mayo

category national | anti-capitalism | news report author Sunday April 19, 2009 23:33author by Sean Report this post to the editors

Man Killed in Bolivia was employed by a security firm to keep out protesters at the Bellanaboy site

The security firm employed by Shell to stop protests by locals against the building of the gas pipeline had employed Tipperary man Mike Dwyer at the site in the past.

Our investigations on Dwyer who was killed by a Bolivian Special Forces unit during the week in the city of Santa Cruz throw up some interesting findings. He has worked for security firm Integrated Risk Management Services IRMS based in Nass, County Kildare. It is owned by Terry Downes and James Farrell. Both Downes and Farrell are former members of the Irish Army Rangers. IRMS personnel have being working closely with the Garda at the site and one photo of such activity shows Dwyer as one of two men seem filming protestors .
Photos on Dwyer’s Facebook page show that he was not moving in mainstream circles since he arrived in Bolivia in November. He is seen in the company of wealthy European types in Santa Cruz city, the heart of the right wing opposition in Bolivia. Including one of him relaxing by a swimming pool, not images one associates with the ordinary people of the poor South American nation.
