A 29-year-old man has appeared in court charged with the murder of Michael Barr in Dublin last month.

Mr Barr (35) was gunned down on April 25th at the Sunset House pub in Summerhill, where he worked as a barman. 

The killing has been linked to the ongoing Hutch-Kinahan feud, which has claimed seven lives since September.
