Children being 'corrupted' by drug dealing situation in Oliver Bond flats, Dail told

A Dublin TD has told the Dail of concerns for the safety and welfare of children living in the Oliver Bond flat complex in Dublin’s south inner city with children witnessing "queues of people" getting drugs.

Sinn Fein TD Aengus Ó Snodaigh told the Dail on Thursday that the situation in the Liberties complex has “gone absolutely buck mad”, the Irish Times reports. Deputy Ó Snodaigh told the Dail: "The queues of people outside certain blocks and flats show this is organised.

"There are characters running up and down taking orders and delivering cash to different flats as they distribute various drugs such as crack cocaine, cocaine, heroin and e-tabs. Children’s lives, in particular, are being corrupted when they start seeing this day in and day out."
