Summary

During a High Court hearing on 18 May 2017, Mr Justice Paul Gilligan reported that weapons, including knives and machetes, were discovered at a Dublin property on Annesley Bridge Road in Fairview, which the court had ordered to be handed over to a bank‑appointed receiver, Mr Simon Coyle. The property had been occupied by thirteen families, including a dozen children, who had been living in several units after the court had previously ordered the premises to be vacated. Two residents claimed they had been paying up to €200 per week in rent to a man named Brian, who has no connection with either the receiver or the owner, Mr John Farrelly. Mr Coyle had taken possession of the property and expressed concern that some residents might try to regain access, as they had only taken light possessions.
