Two new arrests in Carrie Mullane suspected murder inquiry
Detectives have arrested two further people in connection with the disappearance and suspected murder of 39-year-old Limerick woman Carrie Mullane (Noonan), limerickleader.ie reports.
A spokesperson for the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) confirmed that a man in his 30s and a woman in her 60s were arrested on Sunday on suspicion of murder in the Enniskillen area. Both remained in police custody at the time of the announcement.
The Moyross native was last confirmed to have arrived in Enniskillen on 10 October. Since then, no verified sightings of her have been reported and she has had no contact with family or friends. Her family in Limerick have made repeated appeals on social media seeking information on her whereabouts.
A 35-year-old man arrested on Tuesday, 3 November has since been charged with murder and preventing the lawful burial of a corpse.
Detective Superintendent Richard Thornton of the PSNI's Serious Crime Branch said the absence of contact was deeply out of character for Carrie and had given rise to serious concern.
"Our enquiries to date have not established her whereabouts and have led us to hold serious concern that Carrie may have been murdered sometime after her arrival in Northern Ireland," Det Supt Thornton said.
He added that searches were continuing at a number of locations and that investigators from the PSNI's Major Investigation Team were working closely with colleagues from An Garda Síochána "in a bid to bring Carrie home."
Thornton appealed to anyone with information, CCTV, dash cam or mobile phone footage that could assist the inquiry to contact the PSNI. Information can be submitted online at reporting.psni.police.uk/appeals, or shared via the Major Incident Public Portal at mipp.police.uk. The Crimestoppers charity can also be contacted anonymously on 0800 555 111.
