PODCAST: Exhumation of Liam Farrell's body could be a success, says UK expert

RTE's Prime Time is featuring a special report tonight on the death of a Leitrim man almost six years ago.

Liam Farrell, 87, was found dead at the back of his house in Rooskey in January 2020.

An inquest found he died of a heart attack, but his family believes he was attacked beforehand.
