The family of the 21-year-old man beaten to death in Co Monaghan last month has launched a campaign to bring those responsible to justice.
Paul Quinn died after being savagely beaten in a paramilitary-style punishment attack near Oram on October 20th.
His family say the attack was carried out by members of the Provisional IRA based in south Armagh.
This has been backed up by the Independent Monitoring Commission, while an Ulster Unionist politician has claimed the beating was sanctioned by prominent republicans.
Sinn Fein, however, has denied that republicans were involved and claims the killing was related to a dispute between criminals.
The Quinn family wants Sinn Fein to withdraw this allegation or provide any evidence they have to back it up.
They are also seeking meetings with the PSNI chief constable, the Garda Commissioner, the Minister for Justice, the Taoiseach, church leaders and the North's First and Deputy First Ministers the Taoiseach and church leaders.
