Jury to resume deliberations in Terenure murder trial
Summary
The Central Criminal Court jury resumed deliberations on the murder trial of 34‑year‑old Gary Walsh, who is charged with killing 62‑year‑old Cathal Sweeney in Ashdale Gardens, Terenure. Sweeney died from blunt‑force trauma after being punched in the face while watching rugby in a friend's flat.

The jury heard arguments from both sides on Tuesday, spent nearly two hours today, and adjourned for the evening.
