Donegal South West Deputy Pearse Doherty has named Garda Keith Harrison as the latest whistleblower, during a Dáil debate on the Guerin Report.
He told the Dail that Garda Harrison was victimised after arresting a colleague who had been drink-driving.
He claimed he was office bound for a period of two years, while the officer he arrested with a high-level of alcohol in his system was still allowed access to garda cars and to hold a firearm.
Deputy Doherty said he has confidence in the gardaí, but where there is wrong it must be rooted out and whistleblowers must be protected.
