The outcome of a review by the DPP on the decision that no garda should face prosecution over the fatal shooting of George Nkencho at his home in Dublin four years ago is still awaited, an inquest has heard.

Coroner Myra Cullinane was informed at a brief sitting of Dublin District Coroner’s Court that the family of Mr Nkencho has still not received a response to its request for a review of the DPP’s decision.
