Search for remains of man who was issued with Ireland’s first posthumous pardon halted

Harry Gleeson
The search for the remains of the country’s only person to be given a posthumous pardon for a murder he did not carry out have come to a grinding halt again.
Harry Gleeson, 38, a popular hurler and fiddle player, from Holycross, Co Tipperary, was executed in Mountjoy in April 1941, for the murder of mother of seven, Mary McCarthy who was also from the county.
