Dublin Garda member allegedly caught leaking classified information to Mr Big's minions on snapchat in exchange for cocaine

A civilian Garda member is currently under investigation for leaking highly classified information to drug dealers who help form the behemoth gang led by north Dublin kingpin Mr Big.

Several of the Coolock-based gang members had their homes raided on Wednesday as part of the major criminal inquiry into the passing of the classified intelligence to some of Dublin's most dangerous gangsters.

The woman, who is understood to have been suspended but not arrested, was allegedly paid in cocaine for messages sent to the various thugs over social media site Snapchat, taken from the Garda Pulse system according to sources.

She had her mobile seized as part of the National Bureau of Criminal Investigation (NBCI) with Gardai confident that they have significant evidence against the woman from her phone.

The NBCI raided seven homes linked to Mr Big's minions in Malahide, Coolock and various other parts of North Dublin on Wednesday morning.

Sources have previously revealed to Dublin Live that the 
gangland opportunist who has been the biggest name at Dublin's top drug table is now the No1 target for the Garda’s Drugs and Organised Crime Bureau.

The notorious gangland boss has done business with diverse partners including the Kinahan cartel, Limerick’s McCarthy Dundons, Belfast 
dissidents and one of the feuding Drogheda gangs.

The trail of blood he is said to have left in the capital includes innocent victims like Mark Noonan and Glen Murphy, shot in a case of mistaken identity.
