The 78-year-old arrived in Dublin Port yesterday evening on a ferry from Wales, but his current location is unknown.

Dr Casey is due to move back to his former parish of Shanaglish, where he is planning to live out his retirement.

He left the area in 1992 after it emerged that he had fathered a child with Ms Murphy, whom he had been involved in a relationship with since the 1970s.
