State witness Jonathan Dowdall has confirmed that he said to Gerry Hutch “yis never did the Regency” during a bugged 10 hour conversation.
In what was his seventh day being grilled in the witness box, Dowdall, who alleges Hutch previously confessed in a park to him about shooting David Byrne, admitted that in this taped conversation, he said the Hutches weren’t involved.
Gerry Hutch (59) is charged with the murder of Kinahan cartel associate David Byrne (33) in Dublin’s Regency Hotel on February 5, 2016 - a charge he denies.
