Gardaí in Louth investigating the disappearance and murder of Kyran Durnin have renewed their appeal to the public for information.
Two persons (a woman and a man) have to date been arrested on suspicion of murder, and three domestic residences and adjoining lands have also been searched.
One man who was detained over the suspected murder of Kyran was found dead this week. He had been released without charge last Friday.
Investigating Gardaí say they have received extensive support from the public. As part of these ongoing enquiries, new images of Kyran which were taken in June 2022 when Kyran was 6 years old, have been provided to the Garda investigation team.
