Garda denies cloak and dagger interview techniques

There were no cloak and dagger methods used during interviews with a Donegal woman in relation to the death of cattle dealer Richie Barron, a garda claimed today.

Sgt Paul Heffernan, who was one of the officers involved in interviewing Katrina Brolly in Letterkenny Garda Station in December 1996, insisted before the Morris Tribunal that his questions were straightforward.
