Image of man found in canal released

GARDAÍ have released a photograph of the man whose dismembered body was found on Dublin’s Royal Canal last March.

Detectives gave the man’s name last week but believe the east African man had a number of identities in Ireland. They hope more people will recognise his face and make contact with investigating officers.

“People mightn’t have know him by name, or he might be known by a different name,” said a garda spokesman.
