Four gardaí and a private citizen are to be charged as part of a two-year garda investigation into alleged garda corruption in the south of the country.
The five are to be charged with perverting the course of justice following an investigation by the National Bureau of Criminal Investigation.
The Garda Commissioner suspended 11 members of the force because of the investigation, one subsequently retired.
Two others, a garda and a civilian, have been charged and are currently before the courts.
The Garda National Bureau of Criminal Investigation first suspected in early 2019 that information had been disclosed about a Criminal Assets Bureau investigation into the activities of a criminal gang in Munster.
