Defendant
I, Mari Hunter of 4 Marylebone High Street, London Wl, process
server acting under the direction of Stephens Innocent of 21 New
Fetter Lane, London EC4, solicitors for the above named Plaintiffs,
make oath and say as follows:-
1.
That being directed to effect personal service of a true copy
of the Writ of Summons in this action together with Acknowledgement
of Service, Notice of Motion dated the 6th day of June 1995 returnable
on the 12th day of June 1995 and a copy of the Affidavit of Michelle
Taylor sworn on the 6th day of June 1995 with copies of six exhibits
referred to therein, upon Patrick Bernard O'Mahoney (aka Bernard
Patrick O'Mahoney, Patrick Lawson and Bernard King), the above
named Defendant, I attended at 8.15 pm on the evening of Tuesday
the 6th day of June 1995 at 24 Curling Tye, Fryerns, Basildon,
Essex.
No reply could be obtained from the property and I interviewed
an adult male neighbour at 24a Curling Tye, Fryerns, Basildon,
Essex. I was advised by the neighbour that he had not seen the
Defendant at the address for some time. I interviewed other neighbours
but was unable to obtain any useful information. 1 also searched
for the Defendant's motor vehicle which I was informed is a blue
Ford Granada, registration number F310 RYE. I could not locate
this motor vehicle in the local area. I also searched for a further
motor vehicle being a blue Ford Escort registration number M524
TOO.
This motor vehicle was parked opposite the Defendant's address.
I returned to the address at 9.00 pm, at 9.30 pm and again at
10.00 pm when I met with an adult female who advised me that Patrick
Bernard O'Mahoney no longer lives there. My informant advised
me that she might see O'Mahoney the following week and that she
could give him a message. My informant would not disclose her
identity and stated that she did not know where Patrick Bernard
O'Mahoney is currently living.
2.
I then attended at Raquels Nightclub, 23 Market Pavement, Basildon,
Essex later that evening where I am informed that Patrick Bernard
O'Mahoney works. The nightclub was found to be closed and I was
unable obtain any information. I therefore attended at the Basildon
Police Station but the Defendant's file could not be located on
the computer system. I was advised that the only person registered
on the voters register at 24 Curling Tye, Fryems, Basildon, Essex
is a Deborah King.
3. Being informed that the Defendant's alternative address is
a flat at 30 Cowden Street, Bellingham, London SE6 I telephoned
to the address on telephone number 0181 698 2233. I am advised
that this is the address from which the Defendant runs a security
business titled Total Security but I found the telephone number
unobtainable. Being provided with an alternative telephone number
as 0181 697 7011 I rang this number but could not gain a reply.
4.
On the morning of Wednesday the 7th day of June 1995 I again telephoned
0181 697 7011 and learnt that the number pertains to Courts Furniture
Store. I interviewed an employee of the furniture store who advised
me that the names O'Mahoney, Lawson or King was unknown to him.
I then returned to the address of 24 Curling Tye, Fryerns, Basildon,
Essex and met with the same adult female met the previous evening
who again denied that Patrick Bernard O'Mahoney lives at the address.
Parked outside the property was only one motor vehicle, being
the blue Ford Escort registration number M524 TOO.
I searched in the local vicinity but could not locate the other
motor vehicle, the Ford Granada registration number F310 RYE.
I then returned to the Basildon Police Station where I was informed
that Patrick Bernard O'Mahoney had not been seen by them for some
days. I was advised by the Basildon Police that the last known
address that they have for Patrick Bernard O'Mahoney is 30 Cowden
Street, London SE6. I was also advised that the Defendant would
be working Raquels Nightclub on Friday the 9th day of June 1995
and on Saturday the 10th day of June 1995.
