Gerry Hutch must return to prison - if he wants to get back money, jewellery and books he left behind

Free man Gerry Hutch must return to Wheatfield Prison if he ever wants to secure his belongings - including a hefty sum of money.

Hutch (60) walked free from the Special Criminal Court after being found not guilty of the murder of David Byrne on Monday - and therefore left all of his belongings that he had in prison behind.

Sources say those belongings include clothes, books, jewellery and a sum of money.

But it is understood that only Gerry Hutch himself can reclaim that property by personally visiting Wheatfield Prison and signing off on their return.

However sources say Hutch, who has an ongoing threat on his life from the Kinahans, and who is believed to have possibly even already left the country, is not likely to do that any time soon.

It means the belongings, which are said to include a sizable amount of money, must be kept for him - in the event that he one day wants to reclaim them.
