An emotional Charlie Bird today insisted that it is to "our eternal shame" that the relatives of those who died in the Stardust fire are still waiting for the truth.
Ahead of the 41st anniversary of the tragedy on Monday, a vigil was held on the site of the blaze in Artane, north Dublin and the families of the 48 victims vowed to never give up their fight for justice.
No one has ever been charged in relation to the fire at the Stardust nightclub, which occurred on the night of Valentine’s day in 1981.
The families are hoping new inquests for those who died will begin in the coming months.
