The father of a young Cork man who died following an incident at the SideTrax club in the city two years ago will resume his hunger strike outside the Department of Justice this morning.
Mr Andrew Moynihan's son Adrian (23) died in March 2001 while on a night out with friends following an altercation with bouncers at Sidetrax nightclub on Grafton Street in Cork.
Mr Moynihan is calling for a public inquiry to be held into the death. This will be Mr Moynihan's second hunger strike in his quest for an inquiry, and he has previously said he is prepared to "lose my life to get justice for my son".
Mr Moynihan called off a previous hunger-strike after the Minister for Justice agreed to meet with him.
At the inquest into Adrian's death earlier this year, the assistant state pathologist, Dr Marie Cassidy, said she believed he died because of the way he was held down during the incident.
