Former Minister for Justice and TD for Louth, Dermot Ahern has paid tribute to An Garda Síochana, the PSNI and US authorities for their patience and determination in bringing Aaron Brady to justice for the murder of Detective Garda Adrian Donohoe.

From the minute that the murder had occurred the gardaí “had an idea” of who was responsible, he said, but it had taken seven years to gather the evidence.
