The judge said Garda intelligence is that David Waldron and his brother Christopher Waldron took a “leading role” in sourcing and supplying controlled drugs in the Cabra area after Eamon The Don Dunne was murdered in April 2010. The Cab has separately seized the Dublin home of Christopher Waldron and is due to auction it next Friday. The bureau took possession of the house and some expensive watches from Christopher Waldron, of Killala Road, Cabra, after successfully arguing in the High Court that he bought them through the sale of drugs in Cabra and Finglas.

A further house in Cabra, Dublin 7, was bought for €330,000 and extensively refurbished using crime proceeds, the judge found.
