    On 1 July 2021, Lateef Lawal, a 24-year-old man, assaulted and falsely imprisoned Karl Duggan at the Peter McVerry Trust home in Ballyboden, Dublin. The 90-minute attack, during which Lawal hit Duggan with a metal pipe and ran a small knife over his arm, was filmed and posted to Snapchat. Lawal also stripped Duggan of his clothing, took his phone and gym bag, and demanded €10,000 by the end of the month. In July 2022, Lawal pleaded guilty to false imprisonment and assault causing harm at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court and was sentenced to three and a half years by Judge Martin Nolan.
