Liam Farrell’s family is calling for the Justice Minister to allow the Leitrim man’s body to be exhumed.

The 87-year-old was found dead outside his house in Rooskey in January 2020, and his family believes he was attacked. Justice Minister Jim O’Callaghan can grant a licence for his body to be exhumed. Eoghan Murphy spoke to Liam's son Peter after he met the gardai last Friday to discuss a recent internal review of the case. He first outlined some of the outcomes of the review.
