A convicted murderer who assaulted a barrister during his trial and conducted his own appeal because he can’t find a lawyer to represent him, has claimed that gardaí planted evidence against him during their investigation.
Vesel Jahiri (42) stabbed Anna Finnegan (25) to death in her own home a month after she had sought refuge at a women's shelter. Anna had written that Jahiri made her life "hell", had beaten her and "almost killed her". They had been together since she was 16 years old.
Jahiri was sentenced to life imprisonment after he was found guilty by a Central Criminal Court jury of the murder of the mother of his two children at Allendale Glen, Clonsilla, Dublin 15, on September 21, 2012.
