CAB obtains High Court orders over Christopher Waldron's Cabra house, watches and cash
The Criminal Assets Bureau investigated Christopher Waldron of 61 Killala Road, Cabra, Dublin 7, and said he funded assets through the sale and supply of controlled drugs in Cabra and Finglas. On 30 March 2023 the High Court granted orders under the Proceeds of Crime Act over his house, seven watches and cash, made on his consent, after finding they derived from his criminal conduct. The watches were sold at auction on 4 December 2023 for a total of €72,900, and the cash of €4,605 and Stg£445 was forfeited to the State. The latest development, on 7 March 2024, is that a court-appointed receiver took possession of the Cabra house to sell it.
