Gardai are to prepare a file for the DPP after releasing without charge a 35 year old man arrested for questioning about the murder of a father of seven in a graveyard in Co Kerry two months ago.
Detectives arrested the man at an address in Cork city around 9pm on Sunday for questioning about the murder of Tom Dooley (43) at New Rath Cemetery, Rathass, Tralee on October 5th.
The man was brought to Tralee Garda Station where he was detained under Section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act which allows Gardai detain suspects for up to 24 hours.
But Gardai released the man without charge shortly after 8pm on Monday night and a Garda spokesman said that they will now prepare a file on the matter which they will send to the DPP.
The man is the eighth person to be arrested by Gardai investigating the murder of Mr Dooley who was attacked while attending the funeral with his wife, Siobhan and four of his seven children.
