Taoiseach Bertie Ahern has admitted that action needs to be taken to deal with the situation in which some 36,000 people are said to be evading bench warrants for their arrest. Labour party leader Eamon Gilmore said the figure of 36,000 had been obtained from the garda computer system on November 25. He added that there were 111,453 outstanding warrants in total, which was “equivalent to the population of a large five seat constituency”. http://www.soldiersofdestiny.org/massagingcrime.htm
Bertie Aherns reply has to be one of the most amusing Bertieisms ever:
“Some of the cases would relate to people for whom a warrant was issued and they either forgot about it or were sick,” Bertie said.!!
