A nephew of a Zimbabwean woman, whose Irish husband was found dead in a pool of blood in Cork, has thanked locals and the African community for coming out in numbers for the “sad occasion” of the requiem mass of the murder victim
Joe O'Callaghan (66) was discovered in the hallway of his bungalow in Galway's Lane, Douglas in Cork city by his wife, Angeline, shortly after 8am on Monday. Angeline had returned from working the night shift and raised the alarm immediately when she came across her husband in a bloodied state in their home.
He was pronounced dead at the scene.
However, it is understood the father of three sustained injuries on his head, and died following an attack on his person.
He was laid to rest at St John’s Cemetery in Ballinrea following 11am mass today.
A 22-year-old man, who voluntarily presented himself to gardaí, was arrested and released without charge earlier this week.
Door-to-door inquiries have been carried out and gardaí are checking CCTV footage in the area.
