Gardaí seek murder clues on CCTV

DETECTIVES investigating the murder of a young man will trawl through CCTV footage in the hope that those who dumped the body were captured on camera.

The torso and limbs of the so-far-unidentified man, who is black and aged between 20 and 30, were discovered in the Royal Canal last week. The head has not yet been found despite an extensive search by members of the Garda Water Unit.

An incident room at Fitzgibbon Street fielded a number of calls over the weekend from members of the immigrant community making missing persons reports. These are being checked out.
