Justice Has To Be Served In Fr Molloy Case
This week is the 30th anniversary of the murder of Fr Niall Molloy and the family have re-stated their determination to seek justice in this case and I am supporting them in that call. Family representatives met with the Justice Minister recently and made a presentation and their spokesperson Bill Maher says that they are considering the best way forward at this time and they are seeking further legal advice. They are determined to see justice being done in this case and I will assist them in any way I can. This is an injustice that is ongoing for many years and it needs to be brought to a conclusion that is acceptable to the Molloy family
