Gardaí in Dublin have today renewed their appeal for witnesses to a fatal stabbing at a Dublin pub which occurred over the weekend.
Two gangland factions in the Ballyfermot area are believed to have been involved in the brawl which led to the death of Jason Martin (38) in the early hours of Sunday morning.
The incident took place in a car park at Hannigen's pub on Park West Road in Ballyfermot between 1.30am and 2am following a row which started in the bar.
When gardaí arrived at the scene, they found up to 20 people involved in the disturbance. They were carrying a variety of weapons such as knives, broken glasses and broken bottles.
Four people were arrested at the scene under the Public Order Act but were released the next day. A file is being prepared for the Director of Public Prosecutions.
Mr Martin was found by gardaí near steps which led down to the car park. He was taken to Tallaght hospital, where he was pronounced dead a short time later.
Gardaí have appealed for the public help in solving the crime. They called on anyone with information to contact them at Ballyfermot Garda Station on 01-666 7200.
