John Dundon Limerick mobster John Dundon has been trying to drum up business from his jail cell where he is serving life for murder.
Dundon has been asking “everyone and anyone” to work for him in a bid to getting the family’s drug dealing operation back up and running, according to sources.
“He’s on the phone the whole time. It doesn’t seem to be a problem for him,” said a source in Limerick. Brothers John, Dessie and Wayne are currently all serving life sentences together at Portlaoise high-security prison.
All three are housed in the A5 unit at Portlaoise where the combined cost of detaining the trio added up to €283,725 per year, according to recently released figures.
But the tight security at the jail has not stopped John from trying to get associates to take part in underworld deals.
The youngest brother, Ger, has also been making sporadic visits back to Limerick from the UK where he lives in Manchester and London .
Ger Dundon was spotted in the city recently and claims have been made he is also trying to re-establish the family business.
His presence was linked to an incident in which the car belonging to a rival gang member was torched.
