The callous and brutal murder of the person to whom the Deputy refers in his question was a terrible tragedy for his family. It was an affront also to this State as the person was killed in the course of his duty as a Garda.

As I have previously advised, the Serious Crime Review Team at the Garda National Bureau of Criminal Investigation has undertaken a review of the investigation of this murder. I am informed by the Garda Commissioner that the review is currently ongoing. In the circumstances I think it would be best to await the outcome of the Review Team's inquiries.
