A young Irish citizen, called Derek Cooper, is found dead on a toilet in a youth hostel in the centre of Amsterdam.
The cause of death of the young Irish man whose body was found in a locked toilet in an Amsterdam hostel on the 5th of October has not yet been established and further tests are ongoing. Irish police is currently assisting Dutch Police in their investigation into the death of 25 year old Derek Cooper whose body was found in Amsterdam
Only after the corpse was transported to Ireland the autopsy was carried out. Why was there no murder investigation in Amsterdam? What caused his death? Was he doing drugs, or was he actually strangled? Are the main questions to answer.
For RTE news the Europe correspondent Tony Connelly travels to Amsterdam to report about the case and to find out what happened to Derek Cooper. Was he doing drugs, was he murdered or did he die a natural death.
