On Wednesday 28 June 2023, members of the SMVIU attached to the Garda National Bureau of Criminal Investigation arrested a man in his 30s in County Monaghan during Operation Shannon, part of ongoing investigations into organised criminal groups involved in the theft and resale of high-end motor vehicles. In the operation a stolen van bearing false registration plates was recovered. The man was detained under Section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act, 1984, at a Garda Station in County Monaghan, and a Garda release issued on 29 June 2023 said investigations were ongoing. A Garda release issued on 30 June 2023 said the man had been charged, without stating the offence, and that he was due to appear before Dublin District Court, Court No. 1, that day.
