Gardaí bring Quinn murder probe north of the border

GARDAÍ have gone north of the border and conducted “door-to-door” inquiries as part of the investigation into the savage murder of south Armagh man Paul Quinn in Monaghan last October.

The historical development, part of close cooperation between the Gardaí and the PSNI, is thought to have led to the arrest of a number of significant IRA members in south Armagh.

Almost a year since the murder, Paul Quinn’s parents, Stephen and Breege, brother James and sister Cathy, travelled to Dublin to meet Garda Commissioner Fachtna Murphy and TDs. They were accompanied by the Quinn Support Group and SDLP politicians.
