The arrest is part of “Operation Puca”, an ongoing investigation which is being conducted by the Special Investigations Unit of An Garda Siochána which is attached to the Dublin Metropolitan Region (DMR) Roads Policing Unit.
A Garda Spokeswoman told The Echo that as part of “Operation Puca”, the Gardai are liasing with the Insurance Federation of Ireland and insurance companies.
The Garda spokesperson added: “If you have any concerns about your insurance, do not use your motor vehicle on a public road.
Any person with concerns about the credentials of their insurance policy, should contact their insurance company directly and verify if your motor vehicle insurance is valid.
If anyone has concerns about the bona fide of their Insurance Broker they should check with The Insurance Brokers Federation at Central Bank.”
