Police release man held over Kevin McDaid murder

Wednesday, 3 June 2009

Police in the North have released a 41-year-old man they were questioning in relation to the murder of Kevin McDaid in Co Derry 10 days ago.

The man was detained yesterday, but was released on bail last night pending further inquiries.

Mr McDaid, a 49-year-old community worker, was beaten to death by a loyalist mob in Coleraine following Rangers' victory over Celtic in the Scottish league title race.

He was laid to rest close to his home on Monday.

A total of nine men have appeared in court in connection with the attack, six of them charged with the murder of Mr McDaid.

Columnist Comments

• The Belfast hotel where you check in but never leave

Wars never end. Not if you're fighting in them, even reporting them.

• Don't let sisters stop you looking for love, Cheryl

What's wrong with wanting a man? I ask because lately I've lost count of the miserable, lonely female celebrities being told by other women that they should stay single.

• Seeing is believing when it comes to the justice system

A Bill in the Queen’s Speech will, hopefully, speed up the process of letting some more sunlight into Northern Ireland’s rather musty justice system.

• So that's why their pupils were glazed in Play School

Odd period, the 1970s. I've tended to deride them as grim, which they certainly were, but I appreciate now the music and, er, that's about it. They weren't particularly happy years in Northern Ireland.

• Tragedy is opportunity for conflict resolution envoys

The Good Friday Agreement is a cure for which there is no known illness. Nowhere in its 11,000 words does it identify the problem which it purports to solve.
