Second arrest made as body recovered from Lough Erne in Carrie Mullane case
A 69-year-old woman has been charged with withholding information in the suspected murder investigation of Carrie Mullane, bbc.co.uk reports. She is due to appear at Dungannon Magistrates' Court on Wednesday.
Mullane, 39, has been missing since she travelled from Limerick to Enniskillen on 10 October 2026. On Monday, police recovered a body from Lough Erne in County Fermanagh. The body and a small boat were both retrieved at Tullyinnishmore jetty, outside Enniskillen, the previous Friday.
The Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) said they had contacted Mullane's family to inform them of the development, but noted that formal identification "may take a period of time."
A man aged in his 30s, also arrested in connection with the investigation, remains in police custody. On Saturday, a 35-year-old man appeared in court charged with Mullane's murder and preventing lawful burial.
Over recent days the PSNI conducted searches across several areas of County Fermanagh, including Lough Erne. Forensic investigators examined the scene following the removal of the body. The recovered boat was raised from beneath the water beside Tullyinnishmore jetty before being taken away last Friday.
