THERE HAS BEEN a major breakthrough in the case of Trevor Deely, who went missing over 16 years ago.
Trevor went missing after attending a Christmas party on 8 December 2000, and was last spotted on CCTV footage which showed him crossing Baggot Street Bridge and walking towards Haddington Road in the city centre.
A cold-case review was begun by gardaí in December, which included swathes of evidence being gathered and witnesses re-interviewed.
RTÉ reports that this review has led to forensically enhanced VHS footage taken from outside Trevor’s office at Bank of Ireland Asset Management on Leeson Street shows him meeting a man.
Trevor arrives just before 3.30am, speaks briefly to the man and goes into his office for a cup of tea with a colleague. The man, who has never come forward, is seen waiting for a short time before crossing the road.
Trevor leaves the office around 4am, when someone – possibly the same man – follows him. He was last seen at 4.14am walking under an umbrella. He spoke by phone with a friend, telling them what a good night he had.
He has not been seen since.
The Deely family have been notified of the breakthrough in the case.
Anyone with information about Trevor’s disappearance is asked to contact Pearse Street Garda station on 01 6669000 or the Garda confidential line on 1800 666 111.

In years to come they’ll be the individuals you’ll be reading about with dozens of convictions but still on the streets.
It’s a imported problem, eastern Europe
@herp: We have no homegrown joyriders and car thieves?
@herp: evidence of that claim?
@herp:
Really?
Down to your local station and make a detailed statement in evidence so.
@herp: obviously that could not be an Irish.. and I suppose the gangs in Drogheda are all from Europe as well ?
@herp: course it is!
Sure where else?
No Irish Criminals rob cars, nor any other nationality.
Now which “Eastern Europeans” would you mean?
What a dopey illformed comment!
Wonder what rag tabloid you get your info from?
Broke into my folks’ house in Clontarf 2 weeks ago, nicked the keys and the car. Scrotes!
@Yzo Sirrius: Clontarf along with Malahide and Portmarnock are no-go areas, gangs roaming the streets robbing and beating up people
@Yzo Sirrius: yeah. Most of these were actually done in clontarf raheny Sutton and baldoyle.
@Seaniecp: Yeah, the garda said there was 7 cars stolen in the Clontarf area in the previous 2 weeks.
@Niall O’Neill: “no-go areas”…chill out, man!
@Niall O’Neill: like every other area in the country. Place is absolutely lawless
@Yzo Sirrius: Well one is no good without the other
Almost certainly all on benefits, as funded by us mugs, the taxpayers. Then will be sent to prison, again funded by us. Useless leeches.
Sorry to hear about cars been stolen but why leave keys so close to letterbox were they can be “Phished” so easily
@postmanbill: probably a false sense of being safe and secure behind you hall door Alas sadly NO .
@postmanbill: some people leave them in easy reach as an alternative to these people breaking into their house and terrorising their families for the keys to a piece of rolling metal on their driveway.
@postmanbill: I’d rather then took them this way rather then actually entering the house to get them. Lesser of 2 evils.
@Amy Callan: Why not leave the keys in the car if you are that way of thinking. Just give up is not an option.
@wacker macker: just not in the ignition ha, as it is a criminal offence to leave your keys in the ignition while your car is unattended.
have your say
