Man loses battle to serve out jail sentence in Portugal

A Portuguese man who shot dead a trainee hotel manager in Limerick over five years ago has lost his High Court battle to serve out the rest of his jail term in his native country.

31-year-old Paulo Nascimento got a life sentence in 2003 when he pleaded guilty to murdering 24-year-old Grainne Dillon at Jury's Inn, Limerick in January 2002.
