The parents of the murdered French woman Sophie Toscan du Plantier have criticised what they have described as an absence of co-operation between Ireland and France in dealing with her murder.
Georges and Marguerite Bouniol were speaking after a mass at Goleen in west Cork to mark the tenth anniversary of her death.
The local parish priest, Fr John O'Donovan, told the congregation that the tragic and unexpected death of Mrs du Plantier had utterly changed her parents' lives.
He said the thoughts and prayers of the community were with them.
Earlier, the Bouniols laid flowers at the spot where their daughter's body was discovered on a lane way leading to her holiday home near Schull.
The French filmmaker's badly beaten body was found on a laneway on 23 December 1996. No one has ever been charged with her murder.
