Keep Gráinne's killer in Irish jail, demands family

THE family of a murdered Cork woman yesterday met with Justice Minister Michael McDowell to demand that her killer is not returned to Portugal.

Gráinne Dillon, 24, was shot dead at Jury's Inn Limerick on January 5, 2002, by her work colleague Paulo Alexander Nascimento.

Nascimento, a 27-year-old Portuguese national, was sentenced to life in prison in March after pleading guilty to the murder. He recently applied to serve the rest of his sentence in Portugal.
