Judge says it's 'only a matter of time before fatalities' occur amid Kildare feud as he refuses bail for six men

During bail hearings, Judge Desmond Zaidan remarked on the extreme nature of the violence, stating, 'These are weapons from the Stone Age; they are completely unacceptable in modern society.' This comment highlights the severity of the offenses linked to the petrol bombs and dangerous weapons found in the vehicle, emphasizing society's need for greater security.

Witnessing the attempted attack, Judge Zaidan noted, 'Both individuals involved should consider themselves fortunate to be alive today, one due to the garda’s restraint in not firing his weapon, and the other because the attack was thwarted.' This underscores the essential role of law enforcement in preventing potentially fatal confrontations.
