Fresh appeal over missing woman Sandra Collins last seen 22 years ago

Gardaí have renewed an appeal for information ahead of the anniversary of the disappearance and murder of a woman in Co Mayo.

Sandra Collins was last sighted on the night of December 4th, 2000 at about 11pm in the Country Kitchen premises on George’s Street, Killala. She was last seen after she bought chips in a local takeaway and a pink fleece, later identified as hers, was found on the pier in Killala.

She was 28 years old at the time of her disappearance.

A gardaí spokeswoman said the search and investigation remains active.
