Casserly family to travel to Africa
The family of an Irishman killed in a plane crash in Central Africa will travel there in the coming days.
James Casserly died after the plane he was travelling on went down in dense jungle between Cameroon and the Democratic Republic of Congo.
Thirty-year-old James Casserly was born in Ballymena, Co Antrim but he grew up in Quin in Co Clare.
He had been working for an investment bank in London and was in Africa on business when the crash happened.
The aircraft, carrying nine passengers, was chartered by Australian mining firm Sundance Resources.
Contact was lost with it on Saturday and the wreckage was found by search teams yesterday inside the Democratic Republic of Congo.
James Casserly's family will travel to Central Africa in the coming days, as efforts are made to bring his body home.
