GARDAÍ ARE INVESTIGATING after the discovery of a suspected sheebeen in Co Kerry.
The search was carried out at around 8pm last night in Causeway, where investigators entered a property under warrant and found what is described as “a fully operational bar”.
The property contained a number of beer taps and a fully operational cooler room with gas lines and cooler to operate the taps.
The premises was also fitted with a number of tables, chairs, a pool table, a dart board, arcade games and an 80 inch flat screen television.
No arrests were made, but a garda spokesperson said that a file is to be prepared for the Director of Public Prosecutions.
The latest search follows similar discoveries of suspected sheebeens across the country during the implementation of Covid-19 restrictions.
Last month, gardaí seized “substantial quantities of alcohol” during searches at a number of suspected shebeens in Laois, Meath and Westmeath.
