Pals of slain criminal James Whelan are planning to kill the gangster they blame for the murder – but only after his funeral, it’s emerged.
Sources revealed that gardai probing last Sunday’s shooting in North Dublin fear tensions are at boiling point among his associates – and they are determined to seek revenge.
They have identified the thug known as Mr Flashy as being behind the murder of the 29-year-old in Finglas, even though gardai do not suspect he fired the fatal shot. And it’s understood investigators now believe the mob boss cannot outrun Whelan’s pals.
