THREE SUSPECTED DISSIDENT republicans are due in court in Dublin this morning.

As reported yesterday evening, one of the three was arrested at a house in Donaghmede in north Dublin. As well as that 31-year-old, two other men, aged 29 and 20, were also arrested by detectives investigating organised crime and dissident activity in Ireland.

RTE reports that the three men are alleged to have threatened the operators of a pub in Dublin to shut the premises down in March. The pub was allegedly a rival business to one in which the men had an interest.
