THE grieving girlfriend of murdered Real IRA boss Alan Ryan is under threat from gangsters. The Irish Sun can reveal Stacey Roche has been warned by gardai that her life is in danger. Despite Ryan fathering a child with another woman, Roche, 24, from Crumlin in south Dublin, has remained loyal to the terrorist’s family. The 32-year-old was whacked by a hitman in Clongriffin, last September. Since then, Roche has been doing shopping for his family and attending his grave every day. We can also reveal Roche is one of FOUR women who have been identified by gardai as being under threat from gangsters in the Crumlin area. And five of Ryan’s old gang also remain under threat from pals of murdered godfather Eamon Kelly, 65. A source said: “Roche was never involved in crime — she’s being threatened because of her relationship with Ryan. “She has been spending her days in north Dublin. Ryan had a string of lovers but Stacey seems to be in turmoil at his murder and this is the last thing she needs.” Detectives have also established that a total of 26 men are now under threat from rival gangs in the Crumlin area. Cops have also vowed to increase patrols in the south inner city and enforce bail conditions on suspected gangsters.
