ONE of the country’s most feared criminal gangs has been forced to pay protection money to dissident republicans in return for being allowed to deal drugs and carry out illegal operations in Limerick.

The Irish Independent has learned that the notorious McCarthy-Dundon gang has been handing over large sums of cash to subversive elements for up to two years.

The criminal gang, which is regarded as one of the country’s most dangerous, is understood to have made large payments on a regular basis under the threat of severe reprisals. It is believed that thousands of euro was handed over by gang members in some payments.
