Body of Darren Sutherland exhumed ahead of inquest
The body of Olympic boxer Darren Sutherland has been exhumed from a cemetery in County Meath.
The 27-year-old Irish middleweight, who won bronze at the Beijing Olympics, was found hanged in his London flat by manager Frank Maloney last September.
The Metropolitan Police said the death was not being treated as su****ious.
The body was taken to a Navan hospital for a second post mortem examination, which was requested by his family ahead of an inquest later this year.
Sutherland's family did not go into detail about their call for another post-mortem, but said they would "assist in putting all relevant matters before the coroner".
Sutherland turned professional a few months after winning a bronze medal at the 2008 Games, winning his first four four fights.
He secured Ireland's third boxing medal in Beijing by beating world silver medallist Alfonso Blanco Parra, before being beaten by eventual gold medallist, Britain's James de Gale.
Meath County Council granted a licence to have the boxer's remains dug up from St Finian's Cemetery in Navan.
A statement from the Sutherland family, read by their solicitor, said: "Whilst they are not at liberty to go into the specific reasons for their application given the pending coronial inquest into their late son's death, they feel that the conduct of a second post-mortem into Darren's death will only assist in putting all relevant matters before the coroner when the inquest into Darren's death is reconvened later this year.
"They are firmly of the view that the only forum for determining the facts surrounding Darren's death is through the judicial process and not otherwise."

It has been confirmed that the body of Olympic boxer Darren Sutherland has been exhumed.

The 27-year-old was found dead at an apartment in London last September and was buried in Navan in Meath.

Darren Sutherland won a bronze medal for boxing at the Beijing Olympics in 2008.

He then turned professional and won four fights prior to his death.

His body was discovered at an apartment in the London suburb of Bromley almost a year ago.

Last July, Meath County Council granted his family a licence to have his body exhumed, a process that was carried out this morning at St Finian's Cemetery in Navan.

It is understood it is to allow a pathologist from Northern Ireland to carry out an examination on his remains.
