An 83‑year‑old former garda named Brian DeCourcey has ignored a court order that has been in place for about ten years. The order required him to tear down a steel shed that he converted into a dwelling in the village of Cleggan, Connemara. Despite repeated reminders, he kept the structure and continued to live there. Local authorities now consider his refusal a criminal offense. An arrest warrant has been issued to compel compliance with the demolition order. Police are expected to locate him and enforce the court’s decision.
