The statement reads

We at Matt The Millers have been made aware of a very serious incident that occurred on New Years Eve outside our premises. Firstly we wish to say, we are completely disgusted and horrified by the actions of the individuals who were acting completely outside the remit of their engagement as Independent Security Personnel, employed by Tiger Security Ltd. These individuals have been immediately dismissed by Tiger Security Ltd.
We abhor violence of any form and are treating this incident in the most serious manner possible.We have reported this incident directly to the Gardai ourselves, whom we have met and are complying fully with this investigation. We are also in in direct contact with the other relevant parties.
We thank you for ongoing concern.
