Gsoc 'acutely aware' its probe into George Nkencho death is still not complete

The family hope that the mental state of George Nkencho (pictured) will be examined, including his interactions with agencies and the level of knowledge of his condition among responding officers.

The Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission (Gsoc) has said it is “acutely aware” that the second anniversary of George Nkencho’s death has come and their investigation is not yet complete - but said it will be finished “as soon as possible”.

GSOC launched its investigation after the 27-year-old was shot multiple times by a garda from the Armed Support Unit outside his home in Clonee, west Dublin, on December 30, 2020. Mr Nkencho was brandishing a knife at the time.
