Charles Dooher , pictured with his mother Anna Marie, was airlifted to the Royal Victoria Hospital, Belfast, where he remains in a critical condition after being 'brutally attacked' at his home in Lifford on the morning of January 20thBelfast
In a statement issued through Madden and Finucane Solicitors on Friday, they claimed the violent incident was a result of a Garda failure to police members of another family who, they claim, have “persecuted the Dooher family and maintained a vendetta for more than decade”.
“The Dooher family want a line drawn under the failures of gardaí to properly classify, police, and investigate Charles’ attempted murder and the attacks on the Dooher family historically,” the spokeswoman said. A spokeswoman for PSNI advised to address queries to An Garda Síochána which is leading the investigation.
