A planned conference at the Powerscourt Hotel in Enniskerry is cancelled after threats of protests and blockades, a court hears. Multiple reports state that the cancellation follows concerns raised by those connected to the event after the hotel received abusive calls and threat messages. The reports say the event was organised by the Dialog group and was scheduled to bring together about 200 senior figures across politics, technology and defence. According to court-related reporting, the threats included the prospect of protests and blockades, prompting cancellation before the event could take place. The information presented in court focuses on the nature of the threats received and the effect they have on plans for hosting the conference. The accounts do not indicate any violence has occurred at the venue, but they describe a heightened risk created by the threats. The reports also do not specify who made the threats or provide details of any investigation or charges. The cancellation remains attributed to the threat of disruption referenced in court proceedings.
