Man still held over Quinn killing

Paul Quinn was beaten to death in October 2007

Gardai investigating the death of Paul Quinn are continuing to question a man arrested in Cavan town early on Sunday morning.

The man in his 20s is being detained at Monaghan Garda Station under Section 30 of the Offences Against the State Act.

Mr Quinn, 21, from south Armagh, was beaten to death near Castleblayney in County Monaghan last October.

A number of people have been arrested previously, but all have subsequently been released without charge.

Mr Quinn's family said he was killed by the IRA after he defied an order to leave the country. Sinn Fein denies any republican involvement.
