Further Arrest Over Paul Quinn Murder
Irish police investigating the brutal murder of NI man, Paul Quinn in Co Monaghan in 2007 have made a new arrest.
A statement from the Gardaí said that detectives investigating the death of Paul Quinn in Castleblayney on 20th October 2007 arrested a man in Co Louth early this morning.
"The man in his mid 30s is currently detained at Carrickmacross Garda Station under Section 30 of the Offences Against the State Act," the statement continued.
They also noted that "a total of 17 people have been arrested to-date in connection with this investigation by An Garda Síochána and the PSNI", although none of them have been charged.
Mr Quinn, who was 21, was attacked by a gang of men after being lured to farm buildings near Castleblayney.
He was brutally beaten by a gang of as many as 20 people in an incident that has been widely linked to the IRA - a claim since vigorously denied by Sinn Feín politicians.
