A garda has been found not guilty of striking a protester with his baton at the May Day 2000 Reclaim the Streets protest in Dublin city centre.

Garda Paul Tallon, based at Mountjoy Station, was acquitted by the jury at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court of assault causing harm to Mr Fergal Leddy on May 6, 2002.

It was day nine of the hearing, and the jury of 10 men and two women reached its verdict after spending one night in a hotel following almost five hours deliberations.

Judge Joseph Mathews discharged Gda Tallon from the court and thanked the jury for its care and attention to the case.


Tallon is the final Garda to face charges relating to mayday 2004.

Of the 6+ Garda charged only Garda Paul Daly was found guilty of assault, for which he recieved a 1 month sentence (which is the subject of an appeal)

Tallon was charged with this offence over a year ago but the jury were unable to reach a verdict.

There still are a number of outstanding charges aganist protestors and several civil cases aganist the Garda, sources assure us that the garda will settle the majority of civil claims out of court.
