Five teenage suspects were arrested and quizzed by specialist detectives today over the vicious attack on a school pupil as the victim’s father declared: "Justice for my son."
Gardai swooped and lifted three of the youths this morning while two others were brought in for questioning in the afternoon over the incident, which happened on Monday in Navan, Co Meath. The Irish Mirror has learned that one of the suspects in the case had attempted to avoid being caught but his relative brought him into the local Garda station.
Investigators are now satisfied that all those involved in the attack have been identified. The news emerged after Taoiseach Leo Varadkar also spoke with the victim in the case on Thursday evening.
