Post mortem results of three brothers withheld for operational reasons

Gardaí have said they will not be releasing the results of the post mortem examinations following the deaths of three brothers in Co Cork for operational reasons.

The bodies of Thomas and Patrick O'Driscoll were discovered at around 5pm yesterday evening.

The body of the boys’ older brother Jonathan was found in woodland in nearby Buttevant.

Gardaí say they are not looking for anyone else in connection with the deaths.

The Deputy State Pathologist Dr Michael Curtis carried out post mortem examinations on the three bodies at Cork University Hospital tonight.
