Did a little bit of research on the pirate radio shutdown today, calling Comreg, the Gardai etc. Here's what I found out: 11 locations were raided by Comreg and the Gardai on Tuesday and Wednesday (20th and 21st May) across Dublin. Equipment was seized in 9 of these locations. They (Comreg) wouldn’t give an estimate of the value of the equipment seized and didn’t know the number of Gardai involved. They also wouldn’t say if there was any ministerial involvement so I wasn’t able to find out if McDowell was involved in it at all. They said they worked in co-operation with the National Bureau of Criminal Investigation although a spokesman for the NBCI denied that they had any involvement in the raids or any investigation. The Garda press office also denied any knowledge of the operation. The spokesperson for ComReg said that prosecutions were pending although wouldn’t say whether these ... read full story / add a comment
