The below letter of clarification was sent to the Irish News on November 6th, we are publishing it here also for the record.

“Republican Sinn Féin would like to correct a statement attributed to them in the Irish News published on Wednesday, November 5 in relation to the death of Liam Mulhern.
Your article stated that “Republican Sinn Féin said he was a “fluent Irish speaker and an articulate republican”.

Republican Sinn Féin did not issue any statement regarding Liam Mulhern nor was he ever a member of the organisation.”
