Criminal activities in Ireland directed from the Costa del Sol - Hayes

Decisions on who lives and dies in the Irish criminal underworld are being taken in places like the Costa del Sol. That’s according to the Fine Gael MEP Brian Hayes. He’s claiming that Irish gangs are exploiting the EU’s freedom of movement to direct their criminal activities in Ireland from oversees. The Dublin MEP says the EU is not doing enough to tackle international criminal syndicates. And Mr Hayes is calling for stronger EU-wide cooperation to bring down crime bosses. This week the European Parliament will debate the need to improve information exchange between national law enforcement authorities in EU member states.
