Death of woman was suspected suicide
After the body of Mary Cash, 39, was found inside the bathroom of the 'Stena Nordica' as it approached Rosslare Port in Wexford, a row broke out between a group of people on Feb 25, which forced the ship's captain to alert authorities at the port. But a post mortem investigation has found her death was a suspected suicide. She and members of her family had been travelling to a funeral in Kildare before her death. Mary Cash was on the ship with her husband Ned, who was escorting the body of his father Martin Cash in a hearse back to his homeland to be buried. The body was in a hearse on the ferry. They left Fishguard in West Wales on the afternoon of Feb 25, a day after the family held a service at St. Anthony of the Padua Roman Catholic Church in Edgware, North London. The funeral of Martin Cash was delayed a day after the tragic discovery. There are plans for Mary's funeral but they had to wait for the results of her post-mortem to be carried out. The Gardai have yet to establish a sequence of events that led up to the discovery of her body and row on the ferry. The post mortem examination on the deceased woman has been completed, the results of which were not being released for operational reasons. The male arrested in connection with the investigation has been released from detention without charge.
