From BBC News: "The parents of Paul Quinn have called on Sinn Féin's Conor Murphy to publicly state their son was not a criminal.
The 21-year-old from County Armagh was beaten to death in a barn near Oram, County Monaghan in 2007.
Speaking after his murder, Mr Murphy said Mr Quinn had links to criminality. On Wednesday, he withdrew the remarks and apologised to the Quinn family.
The parents of Mr Quinn accepted the apology, but said it had not gone far enough.
Appearing on the BBC NI's Nolan Live on Wednesday night, Mr Quinn's mother Breege said: "He hasn't said Paul wasn't a criminal."
Her husband Stephen added: "I want him to come out in public and say that, because he said in public that Paul was a criminal."
