The Minister for Justice is to fully contest a High Court challenge brought by the mother of murdered boxer Kevin Sheehy aimed at preventing her son's killer from being transferred to a UK prison.
Mr Justice Charles Meenan was told on Thursday by Anne-Marie Lawlor SC for the Minister that her client is contesting the application brought by Tracey Tully, whose 20-year-old son was killed at Hyde Road Limerick on July 1, 2019, for permission to bring her judicial review action.
