Family angry at decision not to prosecute

THE family of a young man who was found hanging in a garda cell yesterday branded as “disgraceful” a decision not to prosecute anyone in relation to his death.

Terence Wheelock, aged 20, from Summerhill in Dublin’s north inner city, died three months after he was discovered in the cell at Store Street Garda Station.

The Director of Public Prosecutions has ruled that no prosecutions be taken in relation to the death. The decision was based on an internal garda investigation.
