Mr Justice Brian Cregan says Simeon Burke made “wild and unfounded” allegations against gardai

Paramore at 3Arena review: ‘I know you’re not in the UK. Sometimes when you’re on stage, you start saying sh*t’

Mr Burke himself had refused to engage with his own inquiry and had constantly repeated the “mantra” the inquiry was not being conducted in accordance with law and the Constitution. Mr Burke had been described as “highly aggressive” and “abusive” towards gardaí, to have made “obscene” statements about “transgenderism” and to have been “totally frantic” when a garda was attempting to handcuff him.

His parents, sister Ammi and brothers Isaac and Josiah, who were in court earlier, had absented themselves deliberately for the ruling, the judge was told. When the inquiry resumed just after 10.40am on Friday, Ammi Burke made submissions for some two and a half hours arguing it was not being run as required by the Constitution.

When the judge asked Simeon Burke about his position, Mr Burke said the Article 40 procedure was laid down under the Constitution and the judge’s duty was to follow it.
