Kenneth Donohoe (43) of Hazelgrove Estate, Tallaght, Dublin 24, and Darren Murphy (51) of Rory O’Connor House, Dublin 1, are charged with murdering criminal Eamon Kelly at Furry Park Road, Killester, on Dublin’s northside, on December 4, 2012.

They also face a connected firearms charge for unlawful possession of a Glock pistol with intent to endanger life.

Both men have pleaded not guilty to both charges. Mr Donohoe and Mr Murphy were present at the non-jury court this morning where Mr Justice Alex Owens said the court will be ready to deliver its judgement on 15 November.
