Romanian case linked to teen’s death

A prolonged investigation by a number of international law enforcement agencies yesterday led to a man appearing in a Romanian court charged in connection with the death of a Tyrone teenager.

Ronan Hughes, 17, killed himself in 2015, just hours after being blackmailed over intimate images of himself.

The young GAA player, who was a pupil at St Joseph’s Grammar school in Donaghmore, was tricked into sharing the images of himself online.
