A new podcast series, “Veronica – Murdered in search of the truth,” launched by The Indo Daily, examines the life and death of Irish journalist Veronica Guerin, who was fatally shot in 1996. Guerin was investigating organized crime in Ireland at the time of her murder, a case that remains a pivotal moment in Irish history. The series will feature interviews with Guerin’s family and former colleagues, detailing her career at the Sunday Independent and the dangerous stories she pursued. The first episode focuses on the emergence of John Gilligan, a key figure in the Irish criminal underworld, and how his rise coincided with Guerin’s investigative reporting. The podcast aims to shed light on the circumstances surrounding Guerin’s death and the criminal network she exposed. The series is part of a commitment to journalistic ethics and transparency by Independent.ie.
