Gardaí appeal for information in relation to the murder of Shaun Duffy in 2005

Superintendent David Kelly continues to highlight case

Superintendent David Kelly made renewed an appeal for information in relation to the murder of Shaun Duffy on Crimecall, last night. 

He said that gardaí at Milford Garda station continue to investigate the murder of 36-year-old Shaun Duffy who was attacked and fatally wounded in his home at Meenacross, Dungloe in the early hours of Saturday, January 29, 2005.

Gardaí believe that allegiances may have changed over time and that people may feel now that they can forward and speak to gardaí. 

Shaun had been socialising in the Strand View Bar in Maghery on Friday, January 28, 2005. He then continued to socialise at a house in Meenacross, Dungloe and returned to his own home at approximately 2.30am. His body was discovered in his home shortly before 2.30pm that afternoon.

Investigating gardaí continue to appeal for information in this case and believe that a number of people have yet to come forward who may now be in a position to assist in bringing those responsible to justice.

A garda spokesperson said: "With the passage of time some person may now be in a position to provide information to investigating Gardaí that they could not provide at the time, or maybe some person who did provide information at the time may be now in a position to provide further information.”

Anyone with information is asked to contact Milford Garda Station on 074 915 3060 or the Garda Confidential line on 1800 666 111.
