The Derry native was involved in the drugs trade and was facing a number of charges, including possession of a firearm, relating to the shooting of a man in a Dublin pub last September.

Detectives believe Bradley, who was associated with a number of west Dublin drugs gangs, was killed because his accomplices feared he was supplying information to gardaí.
