The ramming incident on September 19th was cheered on by a group of onlookers. It was recorded and a video of the incident was widely circulated on social media.
The gardaí in the rammed car have since signed off work and are receiving support from their colleagues and the organisation.
The incident was the subject of an extensive garda investigation, which is still ongoing.
Gardaí continue to appeal to anyone with information to contact the incident room at Ballyfermot Garda station on 01 666 7200, the Garda Confidential Line on 1800 666 111 or any Garda station.
