In April 2022, Aidan Moffitt (aged 42) and Michael Snee (aged 58) were found murdered in their own homes in Sligo, Ireland, in the space of 24 hours.[1] Both men were found with serious physical injuries due to a physical assault, around 1 km apart in the town.
Separate murder investigations into their deaths were conducted, with Gardaí probing links to a serial killer.[2] Yousef Palani, who is Muslim and of Iraqi descent, was arrested on 12 April, and was charged with the murders the following day.[3] On 23 October 2023, Palani was sentenced to life in prison for the murders and also received a 20-year sentence for assaulting a third man, who lost the sight of one eye as a result of the attack.
