Molloy14 Molloy16 Molloy17 Molloy18Around 60 to 70 people attended last night’s public meeting in Castlecoote Parish Hall, Co. Roscommon, regarding the unsolved murder of Fr Niall Molloy at the home of Richard and Therese Flynn, Kilcoursey House, in Clara, Co. Offaly in 1985.

Gemma O’Doherty, who was recently sacked from the Irish Independent addressed the meeting. Her work on the murder case led to the Gardaí reopening the case in 2010. The DPP recently decided not to pursue it any further.

During the meeting, Fianna Fáil Senator Terry Leyden told the meeting the late Brian Lenihan Snr and his wife Anne were not at the home of Richard and Therese Flynn on the night Fr Niall Molloy was murdered.

It also heard Fine Gael TD Frank Feighan tell members of the Molloy family that he would speak to Justice Minister Alan Shatter about the case.

The current edition of The Phoenix magazine reports that the launch of a €40million rights issue, which will lead to banks writing off €141million in loans to Independent News and Media, may see Denis O’Brien’s shareholding in INM rise from 30% to 60%.

It’s believed Mr O’Brien spent €600m building up his 30% shareholding in the company, which owns, amongst other media outlets, the Irish Independent, the Sunday Independent, The Herald, Sunday World, The Star, and 13 regional weekly titles.

Mr O’Brien’s Communicorp Groups owns Newstalk, Today FM, 98FM, Spin 1038, Spin South West and Highland Radio.

Meanwhile, Tánaiste and Labour leader Eamon Gilmore is scheduled to pose for photographers with Denis O’Brien tomorrow, at the opening of an international human rights conference, called Dublin Platform, organised by Front Line Defenders, which is chaired by Mr O’Brien.

Should you enjoy a chunky synth sound reminiscent of Heaven 17 (fills pipe) and a gripping and scary Temple Bar-based gender role drama.
