City mayor confident of convictions in Geoghegan murder

FOLLOWING a meeting with Limerick’s most senior garda officers, Mayor John Gilligan said he was very confident that those involved in the murder of rugby captain Shane Geoghegan will be brought to justice.

“We asked about the murder investigation, and while they could not give us direct answers because the investigation is ongoing, they seemed quite happy the way the investigation was going and also with the support they were getting from the people of Limerick.

“From what they said, I would be confident that the people who carried out the savage murder of Shane Geoghegan will be arrested, tried and convicted. That was my own impression, coming away from the meeting,” said Mr Gilligan.
