Post-mortem examinations today on the bodies of a father and son.
Scrúduithe iarbháis inniu ar choirp athar agus a mhic.
Post-mortem examinations are to be carried out today on the bodies of two men – a father and son – who were found dead in a house in Letterkenny, Co Donegal, yesterday evening.
Tá scrúduithe iarbháis le déanamh inniu ar choirp bheirt fhear – athair agus mac – a fuarthas marbh i dteach i Leitir Ceanainn, Co Dhún na nGall, tráthnóna inné.
The body of 88-year-old Daniel Duffy was found inside the house.
Thángthas ar chorp Daniel Duffy, a bhí 88 bliain d’aois, laistigh den teach.
The body of his son, Damien, who was fifty, was found in a car in the garage next to the house.
Fuarthas corp a mhic, Damien, a bhí leathchéad, i ngluaisteán sa gharáiste taobh leis an teach.
Gardaí believe his death was caused by murder and suicide.
Creideann na Gardaí gur dúnmharú agus féinmharú ba bhun lena mbás.
While the Gardaí are not looking for anyone else at this time, they are urging anyone with any knowledge of the matter to come and talk to them.
Cé nach bhfuil na Gardaí sa tóir ar aon duine eile ag an tráth seo, tá siad ag achainí ar dhaoine a mbeadh aon eolas acu ar an scéal teacht chun cainte leo.
Daniel Duffy is understood to have been a former public servant.
Tuigtear gur iarsheirbhíseach poiblí ab ea Daniel Duffy.
There has been no report of him for a week but it is not yet known how long the two were dead.
Ní raibh aon tuairisc air le seachtain ach ní fios fós cá fhad a bhí an bheirt marbh.
Gardaí say they did not find a gun or any other weapon in the house.
Deir na Gardaí nach bhfuair siad gunna ná aon arm eile sa teach.
The scene has been examined by the State Pathologist as well as Garda forensic and technical experts, but the results of the post – mortem examinations are awaited to allow the investigation to be properly substantiated.
Tá an láthair scrúdaithe ag an bPaiteolaí Stáit chomh maith le saineolaithe dlí-eolaíochta agus teicniúla an Gharda Síochána, ach táthar ag fanacht le torthaí na scrúduithe iarbháis le gur féidir bonn ceart a chur faoin bhfiosrúchán.
Sinn Féin county councilor Gerry McMonagle said the two men knew the area and had lived there for a long time.
Dúirt an comhairleoir contae Gerry McMonagle ó Shinn Féin go raibh aithne an cheantair ag an mbeirt fhear agus go raibh ina gcónaí ann le fada.
