Ahern to meet Sinn Féin on Rafferty death

The Taoiseach, Bertie Ahern, has said he will again raise with Sinn Féin the killing of 29-year-old Joseph Rafferty.

Mr Rafferty was shot dead after leaving his apartment in west Dublin last April.

His family believe he was shot dead by people connected to the IRA and that Sinn Féin could be helpful in solving the case.
