• Son of 1994 murder victim takes legal action over lack of Troubles investigations Murder · Co. Dublin

  Martin Doherty, a man, was shot dead in 1994 at The Widow Scallan's pub on Pearse Street, Dublin, in an attack the UVF claimed responsibility for. His family complained to the Garda ombudsman, including identifying potential suspects, but the sources report no meaningful investigative outcome. No arrest or charge is reported. On 22 September 2026, the Irish Times reported that the victim's son had begun legal action against Fiosrú, with action also initiated against the Minister for Justice and the Attorney General.
