• Son granted High Court permission over unsolved Louth murders Murder · Co. Louth

  Dominic McGlinchey Snr, chief of staff of the INLA, was shot dead by two gunmen at a phone box in Drogheda, Co Louth, on 10 February 1994, and his wife Mary McGlinchey was shot nine times in her home in Dundalk, Co Louth, on 31 January 1987. Both murders remain unsolved, with no one charged, convicted or arrested. Their son Dominic 'Og' McGlinchey, who was 16 at the time of his father's killing, has brought High Court judicial review proceedings claiming the State failed to properly investigate the killings. Justice Niamh Hyland granted him permission to bring both actions on an ex parte basis, and the cases will return before the High Court in October.
