Four men who formed part of a paedophile ring in the Dalkey House of Horrors case are still living in the idyllic seaside village, according to the mother of an infant murdered 47 years ago.

In an interview with the Sunday Independent, Cynthia Owen has appealed to other sex abuse victims of the men to now come forward in order for gardaí to progress the renewed investigation into the cold case murder.

Last Thursday, gardaí appealed for help in solving the murder of newborn baby Noleen Murphy, stabbed to death and dumped in a laneway in a plastic bag in 1973.
