He then went on to say: “I do not bear any malice towards Mr. [Blank] for this but I believe the truth about this situation must be established in order that such an event does not re-occur.” Later he named a particular garda, now retired, of a named Garda station who contacted him about the fixed-charge penalty points which were issued to him for using his mobile phone while driving on 3 June 2011. The letter continues:

I told him what happened and he said I should write to the station with the details and the points would be removed. He insisted it would be the right thing to do. I subsequently wrote a letter outlining the situation. The points in question were never applied to my licence. As in the previous case, I do not bear any malice towards the Garda in question.
