Garda Ombudsman blames procedural shortcomings for death in custody

A Garda Ombudsman Commission investigation into the death of Dublin man Terence Wheelock who died after being found unconscious in a Garda station has found gardaí did not cause his death.

The report has however identified a number of procedural shortcomings including "a lack of clear instruction" which led to the presence of a ligature point in Terence Wheelock's cell at Store Street garda station.
