Did anyone else get an RTÉ news push notification stating the person they believe responsible for his abduction has died ?

I'll wait to hear details but that's not a good outcome. Killing suspects doesn't help any investigation.

There's very little coverage of this outside Ireland, which I find odd as it's a horrific crime being committed in a first world country as an attempt to extort or intimidate an official of a major local company. This is the kind of thing you expect in a lawless ****hole on another continent.

I don't know why the media are quiet about it but it hasn't gone unnoticed and is a huge red flag for investment in Ireland.

The Gardai and PSNI need to get all over this, take these cnuts down and show them they can't behave like third world scumbags on our island.

To be fair the BBC site has it:

And I linked to a Channel 4 News piece in another post. Its about 10mins long and has an interview with Sean Quinn where he was asked straight up was he the mastermind of it all.

Edit: here is the C4 piece again

I wonder will that solve the whole thing now.

If the dead guy is just the leader of the kidnap gang and not the paymaster then this benefits the paymaster (dead men dont talk).

The main man was named weeks ago.

Derbyshire Police are a bit slow to release how he died during the raid, he took ill is all they say

Same thing here.


* and no I'm not trying to make this about the IRA but trying to use a well known example of having to prove something.

So you have an organisation worth millions and they know who the problem is, nah I still can't see the issue.

Will be interesting to see how this story develops now.

As for the kidnap itself, it was said the culprits made at least one call on a mobile.

They know the time of the incident, surely its easy enough to gather all the call data from masts in the vicinity and go through them all? Perhaps the security forces already have.

And what if they live in the area?

They may do.
But track who all the receiving numbers were, one of them is the guy calling the shots. No?

But someone living in the area & receiving a phone call doesn't do much on its own.
But, not saying circumstantial evidence is no good, all evidence is good.
It's just a pity that man died today......

From the Anglo Celt:

“ The spokesperson confirmed that the man "wet himself and then went ashen pale" when police burst into his home earlier today”

It would be pretty shocking, maybe even suggest a cover-up, if broadcasters for the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland didn't report the event.



I was referring to the world outside the little bubble people seem to live in here.


There's feck all being said about it even at European level. But some psycho Kiwi kills an English backpacker 20k km away and that's the news.:rolleyes:

i've been googling and reading about this since it happened and this is the first time i've seen a name. cheers!

He only moved to Derbyshire the week Lunney was abducted.
Chief suspect in the ATM robberies around here too.

I think the problem here is obvious- the perpetrators are no longer living on this side of the border and wont be crossing it anytime soon for the Gardai to pick them up. The PSNI cant pick them up for a crime committed in another jurisdiction but no doubt know who and where they are. So long as they remain within Northern Ireland there isnt much the Gardai can do here.

Did the kidnapping not occur on a road in Co. Fermanagh, with the subsequent torture believed to have been in Cavan?
Crimes committed in both jurisdictions there.

A well known name in the local area and well known to the cops.

Must admit had never heard of him but had been involved in ATM theft, smuggling, and all kinds of rackets.
