Search of Dublin Jimmy's brother's yard part of investigation into millions of Euro in damage to former Quinn Group property
Cyril McGuinness was known as ‘Dublin Jimmy’
A retired garda superintendent has told the High Court that a search of the business yard of a brother of late gangster Cyril "Dublin Jimmy" McGuinness was part of a major investigation into millions of euro in damage to former Quinn Group property.
Retired Supt Fergus Treanor said a search carried out at the Swords, Co Dublin, premises of Fran McGuinness (62) in August 2014 arose specifically out of the sighting of a Cherokee jeep at the yard shortly before the vehicle was used in an arson attack on the Quinn Packaging Plant in Ballyconnell, Co Cavan, on March 13, 2014.
