Episode 1150: Encrochat - how gardaí are...

Sunday World
About this episode

It was the police hack that gave investigators a front row seat at a gruesome theatre of organised crime, yet Ireland was an outrider when it came to arresting the criminal customers of Encrochat.

Now, the Garda Síochána are warning that they are coming after those who used what they believed was a bulletproof communications network to do their business.

Today we are talking about Encrochat and the takedown of the big networks of criminal groups.
