Du Plantier murder probe ‘must go on’

A campaign group seeking justice for murder victim Sophie Toscan du Plantier has called for continued cooperation between French and Irish authorities.

At a press conference in Cork over the weekend, members of the Association for the Truth about the Murder of Sophie Toscan du Plantier (Assoph) issued the call for mutual co-operation which they said was “key” to knowing the truth.

Ms Toscan du Plantier’s parents Georges, aged 88, and Marguerite Bouniol, aged 86, were expected to attend the conference but cancelled due to ill health.
