Gardaí in Dublin have made a fresh appeal for key witnesses to come forward, as part of the inquiry into the murder of Dermot Byrne in Swords.

One of the men was carrying a large dark-coloured sports bag.

The second taxi picked up a man on Main Street in Swords just before three a.m.

Gardaí say this man was carrying a large coloured sports bag.

Gardaí also want to speak to three men seen walking from North Street towards Main Street at ten to three that morning.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Incident Room at Swords on 01- 666 4700, the Garda Confidential Line 1 800 666 111 or any Garda Station.
