‘Hitman' accused of blasting Ross Monaghan & Eddie Lyons Jr to death in Spain faces extradition hearing
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) AN alleged hitman accused of killing Scots gangsters Ross Monaghan and Eddie Lyons Jnr in Spain won't face an extradition hearing until November - five months after his arrest. Michael Riley, 44, is charged with the murders of the underworld figures at Monaghan's Bar in Fuengirola, Costa del Sol, on May 31.

Riley, of Huyton, Liverpool, was arrested by Merseyside police on June 13 under an international arrest warrant issued by the Spanish authorities. His extradition hearing was due to take place on October 9 at Westminster Magistrates Court, but it will now be heard on November 20. Riley was not on a video link from Wandsworth Prison for the hearing. Judge Timothy King said: "I am prepared to vacate the hearing. "I make directions for the extradition hearing to be heard on 20 November. 'The next call over date will be on 15 August. Hopefully Mr Riley will have been produced via video link.' Monaghan, 43, and Lyons Jnr, 46, were key Lyons crime gang members. Malaga-based Spanish police chief Pedro Agudo Novo has described Riley as a member of the rival Glasgow-based Daniels gang. Bizarrely, Police Scotland have denied a link between the 30-year feud and the murders. 'Godfather' Eddie Lyons Snr bids farewell to gunned down son & kingpin pal at double gang funeral The victims - who were laid to rest in a joint funeral earlier this month - were watching the Champions League final with friends when they were gunned down at the bar on the beachfront. Lyons Jnr died after he was hit by a single bullet outside the bar in front of horrified drinkers. CCTV showed the gunman pursuing Monaghan inside the pub before shooting him dead. Riley remains in custody.

'High stakes' ocean rescue hundreds of kilometres from NZ
Three people were rescued after a high-stakes nighttime rescue in "trying conditions", hundreds of kilometres off the coast of New Zealand last night. At around 2.30pm yesterday, Maritime NZ's rescue coordination centre was notified that a launch bound for Tonga from New Zealand had encountered trouble south of the Kermadec Islands — about 350 nautical miles north-east of New Zealand. A mayday was declared shortly after, and the crew decided to abandon the launch for a life raft. 'They took life jackets, a grab bag and other essential supplies. They gave themselves the best chance of survival," search and rescue officer at RCCNZ Taylor Monaghan said. ADVERTISEMENT "After getting their emergency position — indicating radio beacon coordinates following its activation — it was clear they were a long way from help." Monaghan said it was a "high-stakes" rescue operation. The crew of the launch that had been abandoned are rescued by an oil tanker. (Source: Supplied) A mayday call was relayed to vessels within a 200 nautical mile area by the maritime operations centre. The only vessel in the area was a merchant oil tanker, which changed course to the location of the call. An NZDF P8 was also sent, reaching the life raft six hours after the first call for help. An oil tanker responded to the call for assistance, using ladders to rescue the crew. (Source: Supplied) ADVERTISEMENT The aircraft monitored the life raft and coordinated with the tanker as it was "steaming to render assistance". Aboard the tanker, the crew readied for the rescue. 'Getting on board a large vessel on the open ocean from a life raft is not an easy task," Monaghan said. The tanker had to use multiple ladders to reach the life raft. It also needed to manoeuvre carefully alongside the much smaller raft. "This was done at night, in trying conditions as well," Monaghan said. The lifeboat approaches the oil tanker. (Source: Supplied) At around 11pm, RCCNZ was notified that the crew had been successfully rescued and were aboard the merchant ship. RCCNZ general manager Justin Allen, who monitored the search, said it was a "big relief" to know the crew was safe and was "immensely proud" of the search and rescue officers involved as well as the crews of the P8 and oil tanker. "This was a complex rescue, and very good result to get the three safely off the life raft and onto the merchant vessel," he says.

Poetry for peace workshop
An Irish poet, performer and actor is bringing mindful writing workshops to London this month Róisín Monaghan IRISH poet and performer Róisín Monaghan will host two unique poetry workshops in London in July, combining mindfulness, creativity and community in a welcoming and inclusive setting. The sessions — both titled Poetry for Peace — will take place on Sunday, July 20 in Hampstead and Sunday, July 27 at in Queen's Park (details of venue on the website, see below). The first workshop, on July 20, is family-friendly and open to participants aged 10 and up. It runs from 10am to 1pm and will include light meditation, creative writing guidance, and a chance to share work in a relaxed group setting. The second session, geared towards adults 16+, will take place on July 27 from 9am to 12pm, and includes refreshments, a light breakfast, and a gift bag for each participant. Both events are part of the wider Peace Love Poetry initiative, a not-for-profit organisation founded by Monaghan to promote healing and self-expression through poetry. Originally launched as a YouTube channel titled Words With Ro, the project has grown into a series of in-person workshops across the UK and Ireland, focused on accessibility, mindfulness, and community spirit. Monaghan, is from County Sligo, trained professionally as an actor in New York City and has worked internationally in theatre and performance. Her workshops draw on both her creative and contemplative backgrounds, encouraging participants to explore poetry not as a rarefied art but as a tool for connection and inner calm. 'As an Irish artist, I've always believed in the power of words to bridge distance and bring people together,' she said in a previous statement. 'These workshops are really about making space — space to breathe, to write, and to be heard.' Peace Love Poetry has raised funds for mental health causes and plans to expand its workshop series later this year, with upcoming sessions planned for Dublin, Killarney, and Donegal.
