The parents of Nóra Quoirin, who was found dead while on holiday in Malaysia, have said that they believe there was a "criminal element" involved in her death. "We have insisted from the beginning that we believe there was a criminal element to what happened," Meabh said in an interview with RTÉ News. "And crucially we're struggling because it was difficult to get resources in place fast enough to investigate a criminal angle." Her parents insist that their daughter leaving the family was completely out of character for her. An initial post-mortem found that Nóra died of intestinal bleeding, probably caused by hunger and stress, but the family are still awaiting a full report.
