Shane Geoghegan's murderer's claim he didn't have fair trial rejected by ECHR
The gangland killer of Limerick rugby player, Shane Geoghegan, has failed in his attempt to get Europe’s top human rights court where he claimed he didn't have a fair trial.
The European Court of Human Rights ruled today by a 6-1 majority that restrictions placed on Barry Doyle’s access to a solicitor during garda interviews did not breach his right to a fair trial - a blow in his attempt to overturn the conviction.
