A Cork man has had his conviction quashed for the murder of a man he was accused of assaulting and shoving in a refuse chute.

59-year-old Liam Manley died from asphyxiation after he became trapped in the chute.

30-year-old David O’Loughlin of Garden City Apartments, North Main Street was convicted of his murder in 2015, which he appealed.
