Four Men Due In Court Over Kevin Lunney Abduction

Four men are to appear in court later today charged with the abduction of Kevin Lunney.

The prominent Co Fermanagh businessman, a director at Quinn Industrial Holdings (QIH), was kidnapped near his home in Derrylin and brutally beaten before being dumped by the roadside on 17 September.

A cross-border investigation saw Gardaí arrest four as part of an operation in Dublin and Cavan. Two of the men are aged in their 30s, while another is in his 20s and the fourth in his 60s.

The four men in question will appear in court later today, 26 November, in County Cavan in connection with the incident.
