Nine people were arrested after gardai raided a number of homes linked to investigations of thefts from service stations.
Seven men and two women were all arrested and charged yesterday during a Day of Action in Tallaght and Rathfarnham, also known as the M District. Of the nine arrested, seven people were bailed to appear at Tallaght District Court on Tuesday, May 23, while two people have already appeared before the courts. Investigations are ongoing.
Local stakeholders collaborated in the operation, while uniform and plainclothes gardai raided a number of residences. The homes were linked to people identified as prolific offenders involved in service station drive offs where people leave service stations without paying for fuel.
