The teenage girls who died in a road crash on their way to a Debs in Co. Monaghan on Monday night will be laid to rest today.

Dlava Mohammed's funeral takes place at Clonskeagh Mosque in Dublin. Requiem mass for her best friend Kiea McCann, will be held in Clones at 2 pm this afternoon.

Their classmates from Largy College will form a guard of honour at both funeral services today.

This morning, buses will take mourners to Dublin for the funeral service of 16-year-old Dlava Mohamma.

Her funeral cortege made its way from the Diamond in Clones town centre this morning. She'll be laid to rest at Newcastle Muslim Cemetery following a service at Clonskeagh Mosque.

This afternoon her best friend 17-year-old Kiea McCann, will be buried after funeral mass at the Sacred Heart Church in Clones town.

Dlava's 18-year-old sister was also in the car which crashed on the way to the debs ball on Monday. She's in a critical, but stable, condition at Beaumont Hospital in Dublin.

The 60-year-old driver remains critical at the Royal Victoria Hospital in Belfast.

Largy College, where both girls were students, is providing buses for mourners to travel to and from Dublin for the funerals.

A book of condolence will be opened for Kiea and Dlava at the school in Monaghan tomorrow.
