Irish republican hunger striker Michael Gaughan born as Micheal O Gaibhtheachain dies after a hunger strike that lasted 64 days at the age of 25 in Parkhurst Prison, Parkhurst, Isle of Wight, United Kingdom. The British Government stated that Gaughan died of pneumonia; his family insisted that he died after prison doctors injured him fatally when food lodged in a lung punctured by a force-feeding tube.
