    Gardaí renew appeal for information in 2007 murder of Paul Quinn in Monaghan

    Murder · Monaghan

    Victim: Paul Quinn, Irish man, 21Paul Quinn

    Paul Quinn, a 21-year-old Irish man, was beaten to death at outbuildings in Tullyvanus, Castleblayney, Co Monaghan, at around 6pm on Saturday 20 October 2007, after he and a friend were tied up by a gang of between eight and 10 masked men, some armed with weapons. The attackers fled in a white van that has never been recovered. Twenty-three people have been arrested in connection with the murder, 14 by An Garda Síochána and nine by the PSNI, but nobody has been charged. On the 19th anniversary, 19–20 October 2026, Detective Superintendent Ronan Carey renewed the appeal for information, specifically targeting the Cullyhanna area of South Armagh. The Quinn family believe members of the IRA were responsible, a claim Sinn Féin has denied.
