Statement by the Chairperson, Ms Margaret McGinley and Chief Executive, Mr Donal Connell
On behalf of everyone in An Post we wish to offer our deepest sympathy to the family and staff of the deceased Postmaster. We are shocked and horrified by the savagery of this criminal act.
Postmasters and their staff play an integral role in the lives of Irish people and their safety, and that of our customers, is at all times our primary concern.
A senior An Post team is working closely with Gardai and the Post Office assistants at the office have received medical attention.
