Police arrest a man suspected of involvement in the storage of pipe bombs and linked to an INLA-related group that targets drug dealers along the Irish border. The reports say the operation identifies him as a key figure within the gang’s support network.
Multiple outlets state the focus of the arrest is a younger associate connected to convicted INLA member Paul “Jaws” Kelly. One outlet describes him as the “store man,” a role associated with holding or managing explosive devices, while both frame the wider context as ongoing criminal activity and extortion linked to INLA. The sources describe the matter as part of law-enforcement action directed at dismantling the group’s influence over drugs-related crime in border areas.
While the outlets agree on the identity of the suspected role and the link to Kelly, they do not provide further public detail in their shared summaries about the circumstances of the arrest, specific charges, or the location and timing of the operation.
