Garda boss vows killers must be brought to justice

GARDA commissioner Fachtna Murphy said there was a small core of ruthless killers in Limerick who will have to be brought to justice.

Appealing for witnesses to come forward in the investigation into the brutal murder of rugby captain, Shane Geoghegan, he said that if necessary the witness protection programme will be used in the investigation.

“We will use any means within our power, within the rule of law, to bring the forces of the state to bear in dealing with this criminality. There is a small core of ruthless killers in this city that have to be brought to justice.”
