Daughter pleads for help over murder of James Cahillane

The daughter of a man murdered, possibly with a hammer, in an attack where the motive is unknown, yesterday appealed for the public’s help.

On the fifth anniversary of the murder of James Cahillane in Kerry, his daughter Lisa said the tragedy was incredibly hard for her and brother Gary to accept.

“He was a good man, a good father,” said Ms Cahillane, describing her father as a quiet, gentle man who had never been confrontational in any way and never bothered anyone.
