Garda\u00ed<\/a> investigating the death of a man in Co Tipperary have upgraded the case to a murder investigation following the receipt of postmortem results late on Sunday night.<\/p>\n

Investigators are not releasing the results following the examination by State Pathologist Dr Heidi Okkers on the man who died following an incident in a house in Carrick-on-Suir on Saturday night. <\/p>\n

The Irish Times understands the postmortem confirmed the man suffered a number of stab wounds at his house on Callanan\u2019s Lane off Castle Street in the town.<\/p>\n

Garda\u00ed have not released the man\u2019s name, but he has been named locally as Pavel Javorsky (47), a Czech national, who had been living in Carrick-on-Suir for a number of years.<\/p>\n

Mr Javorsky was found unresponsive by garda\u00ed when they responded to a 999 call at about 11.30pm on Saturday, alerting them to an incident in the house in a cul de sac.<\/p>\n

Paramedics attended to Mr Javorsky but were unable to resuscitate him. He was pronounced dead at the scene and his body remained in the house overnight.<\/p>\n

His body was removed early on Sunday afternoon after Dr Okkers carried out a preliminary examination and he was taken to University Hospital Waterford for a postmortem.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, detectives are continuing to question a woman (24), also from the Czech Republic, who was arrested at the scene on suspicion of assaulting Mr Javorsky.<\/p>\n

The woman was taken to Clonmel Garda station where she is being detained under Section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act, which allows people to be held for up to 24 hours.<\/p>\n

It is understood the woman\u2019s questioning did not begin until 8.30am on Sunday and she exercised her right to suspend questioning late on Sunday night.<\/p>\n

Questioning resumed early on Monday morning and it is understood her period of detention will expire by 2pm on Monday by which time she must be released or charged.<\/p>\n

Garda\u00ed were today expected to resume door-to-door inquiries in houses surrounding Callanan\u2019s Lane in the centre of Carrick on Suir.<\/p>\n

They were also canvassing domestic residences and business premises for CCTV footage.<\/p>\n

An incident room has been set up and garda\u00ed are appealing to anyone who may have any information to contact them at Clonmel Garda station on 052 617 7640.<\/p>\n

The murder is the second in Carrick-on-Suir in two months and follows the killing of Iarnr\u00f3d \u00c9ireann employee Ian Walsh (49) who was stabbed to death in the town in August 2nd.<\/p>\n

Waterford native Mr Walsh was found on August 4th with multiple stab wounds in a downstairs bathroom in his house at Ravenswood off the Cregg Road in the south Tipperary town.<\/p>\n

Garda\u00ed opened a murder inquiry that led to the arrest and charging of a local man (19) with Mr Walsh\u2019s killing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Garda\u00ed investigating the death of a man in Co Tipperary have upgraded the case to a murder investigation…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":63155,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[45,42,43,40,38,41,39],"class_list":{"0":"post-63154","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-headlines","8":"tag-an-garda-siochana","9":"tag-headlines","10":"tag-news","11":"tag-top-news","12":"tag-top-stories","13":"tag-topnews","14":"tag-topstories"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/63154","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=63154"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/63154\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/63155"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=63154"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=63154"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=63154"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
