A man was "lured" to a country lane just outside Dublin by a trusted friend before being "riddled" with bullets in an execution style killing, a barrister has told the Central Criminal Court.
Lorcan Staines SC opened the case for the prosecution in the trial of Conor Dolan, who denies murdering Neil Fitzgerald seven years ago. Mr Staines said the prosecution will use circumstantial evidence to prove that Mr Dolan arranged to pick up the deceased from a pub in Tallaght before driving to the remote area where Mr Fitzgerald's body would be discovered the following day.
Conor Dolan (33) with an address at Ashbrook Apartments, Navan Road, Dublin 7 has pleaded not guilty to murdering Neil Fitzgerald (36) at Hills Lane, Crooksling, Tallaght, Dublin 24 on June 5 2016.
