lets just hope they get the justice they deserve, Im sure many of the amazing ladies on here will feel a little safer now. but until the government changes the laws regarding the purchasing and selling of sexual services, the ladies will continue to risk their safety by opening their doors.

It didnt say what evidence. Those men could have been just clients who were there at the time. Wasnt operation quest just a failed crackdown on the law of illegal to buy sex which everyone ignored

QUOTE; Gardaí make five arrests as they carry out raids linked to spate of assaults on sex workers

A number of women have been subjected to violent attacks in recent weeks.

GARDAÍ INVESTIGATING SEVERAL serious assaults and robberies against sex workers have arrested five people.
As part of Operation Quest, a search operation was carried out yesterday. Three addresses were searched under warrant in the west Dublin area and four men were arrested.
All four men, aged from 18 to 37 years, are currently detained for questioning under Section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act 1984 at garda stations in Dublin. A fifth man was arrested on foot of a bench warrant and is now before the District Court.
A garda spokesman said: “The Operation was conducted by Gardaí from the Garda National Protective Services Bureau (GNPSB), along with units from Dublin Metropolitan South Central, Western and Northern Divisions, and Longford/Roscommon Divisions.
“An Garda Síochána is continuing to appeal to any sex worker who may have been subject to a similar attack to immediately report the incident. Anyone who comes forward will be treated confidentially with compassion and sensitivity.
“An Garda Síochána is also appealing to any person with information on these callous, targeted attacks to please contact Gardaí to assist in bringing these dangerous attackers to justice.” QUOTE ends.

Looks like a genuine attempt to investigate and bring to justice the perpetrators. Here's hoping it is successful.

I assume, that once the search warrant was issued and a search had taken place, they then arrested the men? That's how the article reads. District court judges issue search warrants, it's not something you can get willy nilly.
