The body of a 30-year-old man was recovered following a major fire at the Tierney Street business on Monday evening.

Gardaí have named the victim as Ramunas Sinica, a Lithuanian national, who lived on William Street in Ardee.

Deputy Adams expressed his sympathy to the family and friends of the deceased and to the staff of Finlay’s.

He said: “This is a tragedy for the family and friends of the man who has lost his life.

It is also a blow to the owners and other employees of Finlay’s.

Every effort should be made to assist Finlay’s to repair the damage and secure its future.”
