Brian Rattigan's phone seized by gardai as part of Gary Carey murder probe

Gardai investigating the murder of Gary Carey have seized a phone from crime boss Brian Rattigan as part of their probe into his associates.

Sources confirmed that officers took a mobile phone from “King Ratt” after he arrived back in Ireland via Dublin Airport last week. It is understood that Rattigan, whose associates are being probed over the gangland murder of Gary ‘The Canary’ Carey, willingly handed over his phone to gardai.

Convicted killer Rattigan, 42, has been predominantly abroad ever since his release from Portlaoise Prison in August 2021. The infamous gangster served 18 years behind bars for stabbing Declan Galvin to death in 2001 — a killing which sparked the bloody Crumlin /Drimnagh feud.
