    Sorry NIMAN, I split your post from the condolences thread. I think it's best to start any news discussion separately from the condolences.

    Modedit: Nobody has been publicly named so this post has been edited.

    I can't find any official mention of who or what the people were so it had to be removed.

    Astonishing that the Gardai told the media yesterday that there was no timeline for a file to go to the DPP. Two years after the event and the families looking for a full public inquiry.

    I’d love to hear Drew Harris’s phone number call afterwards to the officer in charge.

    Yes, Sir. How high, Sir?

    Not sure what's the issue with this case at all?

    Its now been 3 yrs since 10 people lost their lives in this terrible explosion.

    Yet we seem to be no closer to being told what actually happened or what caused it.

    I find it so strange that such a disaster seems to be making no progress.
