The Special Criminal Court heard that the attack had left two of the three victims with life long injuries

Alan Wilson, who was named in court as a member of the Kinahan crime gang, has been jailed for ten years for his role in a plot to murder three men outside the Player's Lounge pub in 2010.

He also pleaded guilty to an offence under the Firearms Act of possession of a .38 calibre Smith & Wesson revolver and a .32 calibre Zastava semi-automatic pistol on dates between July 24 and July 26, 2010, in circumstances that give rise to the reasonable inference that he possessed them for an unlawful purpose.

In 2014 Wilson was found not guilty of the murder of teenager Marioara Rostas. The 18-year-old had been shot four times in the head before her body was buried in a shallow grave where it was discovered four years later, in 2012. During his trial, retired former head of the National Surveillance Unit William Johnson said he believed in 2017 that Wilson was a member of the Kinahan crime gang.
