Being treated as ‘suspicious’…
Now thought to be a foreign national who may have lived in the area, for a couple of years.
I live in Ennis. Local rumour has it that he was murdered
The irony it would be more Comments and Hate Speech if it was about a murder in London or other Western City.
RIP. hope they caught the Criminals and Bring them to the Justice.
Local news is reporting he was stabbed to death. Being stabbed to death does sound pretty suspicious.
RIP
