I wonder if this won't lead to a tit-for-tat Keane Mulready Woods murder type situation.

I bet the PSNI are on high alert right now.

RIP John

The Czech man is accused of being an accomplice, is that right?

In Spain, if he's not considered a threat to public safety / a flight risk / has no priors, then this isn't abnormal.

but he has to check in every two weeks - not being funny but I am not sure he can exactly be trusted to stay in Costa Blanca and obey conditions considering he is already one way or another believed to be involved in what happened to John. Tbh I am not convinced he has no priors either.

Well that little tidbit is eyebrow-raising. Coincidence, or something sinister involving the partner, I wonder?

the czech man is likely to be a hired gun...irish criminal gangs have used many eastern european hitmen over the recent years.

this whole thing goes back to something which began much closer to home for the victim sadly

my own opinion based upon some knowledge of past events

This seems like it would be quite the coincidence to me

Considering the family and the police seem to have no either where JS and MA are how would this paper know this even?
