'Simply scandalous': Enda Kenny on Swedish House Mafia gig attacks

"Absolutely disgraceful, appalling and simply scandalous."

"Absolutely disgraceful, appalling and simply scandalous."

That's the Taoiseach's verdict on violent incidents at the Swedish House Mafia concert in the Phoenix Park in Dublin on Saturday night.

The Justice Minister Alan Shatter is also expected to address the issue in the Dáil this week after briefings from the Gardaí.

Enda Kenny said the scenes that have emerged have appalled him - and everyone.

"The video pictures are absolutely disgraceful," he said. "That three young people died is simply scandalous."
