Murder leads gardaí to €200,000 heroin haul

GARDAÍ recovered heroin with a street value of over €200,000 when they carried out searches in Southill yesterday as part of their investigation into the murder of Limerick man Thomas Moran.

The huge haul of heroin was found in open ground not far from where Mr Moran’s body was found at 1am on Monday.

A priest told mourners at the funeral Mass of Mr Moran yesterday that the killer had put himself into a world of death and shame.
