A RENEWED APPEAL has been issued for information relating to the murder of Mikolaj Wilk at his home in Cork last weekend.

The 35-year-old father-of-two was attacked by men with machetes in a rural area of Ballincollig, Cork, last Sunday morning. The attack lasted up to 10 minutes; his wife Elzbieta was also injured in the attack. Gardaí are still searching for a motive for the brutal murder.

In the past week, number of people have come forward with information to date and Gardaí have thanked the public for their assistance.

Today, they renewed their appeal for taxi and hackney drivers that were operating in the Maglin, Ballincollig, Ballinora and Waterfall areas on the night of the incident who have not come forward.

In particular, they wish to speak to a driver who picked up three women at a pub in the Wilton area through a booking on a taxi app and drove to Waterfall, dropping two of the women along the way.

Witnesses, or anyone who can assist with the investigation, are asked to contact Gurranabraher Garda Station on 021 494 6200, the Garda Confidential Telephone Line on 1800 666 111 or any Garda station.
