A Nigerian asylum seeker, Quham Babatunde, 34, was fatally stabbed near Dublin’s main shopping district.

Babatunde was attacked in the early hours of February 15 on South Anne Street after reportedly attending an Afroswing event at a nearby nightclub.

Emergency responders treated him for multiple stab wounds, including one to the heart, The Irish Independent reported. Despite being rushed to St James’s Hospital, he was pronounced dead shortly after arrival.

A second man, who sustained non-life-threatening injuries, including a suspected fractured cheekbone, was also treated at the same hospital.

Gardaí have launched a murder investigation and confirmed that two men have been arrested and are being questioned in connection with the fatal stabbing.

Babatunde had been living at the International Protection Accommodation Service (IPAS) centre in Ballyogan, south Dublin, according to RTÉ, Ireland’s national broadcaster.
