Following on another story in this issue of The Canadian Vindicator dealing with freedom of the Press, the murder six years ago of courageous Irish journalist Veronica Guerin has been commemorated by the unveiling of a plaque at the scene where she was killed.

The memorial, which is situated opposite the traffic lights at Newlands Cross, on the Naas Road, outside Dublin, consists of a flower bed and a plaque carrying the inscription "May we always remember her for her courage."

Guerin worked as a reporter for the Sunday Independent newspaper, and had relentlessly investigated drug trafficking criminals in Dublin.

Her mother, husband, and twelve year old son attended the unveiling, as did Garda Commissioner Pat Byrne and Gavin O'Reilly, chief operating officer of Independent News and Media.
