A “sub-cell” of one of the most dangerous organised crime gangs operating in the midlands were the target of the latest raids by the Criminal Assets Bureau (CAB). During the course of the search operation in Co Longford, eight dogs which gardaí believe were stolen were taken into care by the local dog warden. Gardaí said the raids were linked to a massive search operation against the wider gang which occurred last July. CAB led a massive search operation against one of the gangs driving the dangerous Longford feud on July 6 last. Last year, three members of the gang walked free from court after receiving suspended sentences in relation to a violent fracas that inflamed the midlands feud.
