Man who brought uncle's corpse to Post Office says he should 'win an Oscar' if he's lying
dailyrecord.co.ukThe man who brought his dead uncle into a Post Office branch to collect his pension states that he should "win an Oscar" if he is lying about his version of events.
Declan Haughney and a friend walked his uncle Peadar Doyle from his home to a Post Office to collect his pension - and claim that they did not realise he was dead by the time they reached the counter.
Declan has also claimed to The Irish Mirror that with hindsight, he should have alerted people that his uncle was not well in the days leading up to the horrifying incident, after discovering him "under the bed", where he said he was lying for "two days". “Now in the last month he’s telling me he doesn’t feel well, he’s after deteriorating.“He says Declan, ‘I don’t feel well’.
I said to myself ‘I don’t feel well either’.“He was on the ground off the bed. I said what’s wrong, he said ‘I’m grand’.“I went back in a few hours later and he was under the bed,” he claimed.“I tried to coax him out from under the bed but no he wouldn’t.” Declan’s comments come as The Star can also reveal today that the garda investigation into the events that happened at the post office are now centred on whether anyone “failed to notify” the authorities of a dead body.
