Gardaí are looking to speak to a Dublin taxi driver who may have information to share in an ongoing investigation into the alleged assault of a woman in Finglas.
A white man and white woman were brought through Dublin’s inner city to Cappagh Road in the early hours of Friday morning, where the alleged assault occurred nearby a short time later.

A garda spokesperson said investigators are aware “misinformation and disinformation” have been spread about the alleged assault.

“For clarity, Gardaí are following a definite line of inquiry and are not looking for anyone else at this time,” they said.

Protests in north Dublin have falsely claimed that non-white refugees were involved in the alleged assault.

The taxi passengers are described as being a white man and woman in their 20s.


The woman had blonde hair and was wearing high boots, a pink blazer and a black jacket. The man is described as being of average height and build.

He was wearing a red top with blue jeans.

Gardaí are appealing to the taxi driver or anyone with information on the incident to come forward.

“Investigating Gardaí are looking to speak to a taxi driver who picked up a fare from a white man and white woman at around 1.30am on that particular morning,” a garda spokesperson said.

"Both passengers were driven from a location in Dublin’s South inner city and taken to Cappagh Road in Finglas, Dublin 11. The taxi is believed to have travelled to Finglas via the industrial estate in Ballycoolin.

“The taxi driver or anyone with information regarding this incident is asked to come forward and contact Finglas Garda Station on 01 6667500, the Garda Confidential Line on 1800 666 111, or any Garda Station.

"No arrests have been made. Investigations are ongoing.”

Google made me do it!

[Rat Catcher]

Probably one of them blacks. How do they get licences? Give it back to the Gardai, I say.

...or maybe the industrial estate was a requested waypoint?

[watty]

My understanding is that many taxi drivers won't go to Finglas at night.  Passengers have to pretend they're going to Glasnevin and plead their case that it's only a little bit further when they get to Glasnevin.

[Rat Catcher]

Seems a tad extreme/unlikely. Is it migrant drivers refusing to take Irish clients to Irish houses in Ireland?

[Rat Catcher]

A bloke was telling me one of them Muslims wouldn't let his Mrs in a taxi during COVID '19 anall unless she covered her face.

[watty]

Well, it was the law during Covid for public transport passengers to wear masks when travelling in said vehicles!

[Rat Catcher]

That's what the Muslim lad said.... and didn't he just love saying it... so I'm told.

[Rat Catcher]

Was it the migrants that were moved on from Ashtown that assaulted the woman?

Was it a sexual assault or did they block her path with a pile of prams from a bus stop and spit in her face and, if it was the latter, was she an old woman gently singing Molly Malone while wheeling her great-grandchild in a pram in broad daylight?

If the thin Blue are Policing Racist Riots the local Gang Boss can move his freight as the thin blue are engaged .Bring back internment without trial lock them up .

[Rat Catcher]

Dangerous talk, erm... particularly with an orangeman in charge of An Gardai Siochana.

Ask yourself this... why aren't the Gardai going after the men who assaulted the woman?

[Rat Catcher]

...or was it the taxi driver that assaulted the woman and, if so, was he vetted and how did he get a licence?

Gardaí issue appeal after 'misinformation and disinformation' on Finglas assault

Gardaí have said a significant volume of misinformation and disinformation has been circulated in relation to an investigation into an alleged assault on a woman in Finglas in Dublin last week.

The incident is alleged to have taken place near Cappagh Road during the early hours of last Friday morning.

Gardaí are looking to speak to a taxi driver who picked up a fare from a white man and white woman at around 1.30am that morning.

Both passengers were driven from a location in Dublin's south inner city and taken to Cappagh Road in Finglas.

I'd say the Guards are looking for the taxi driver first.  Let's see what happens after that...
