Release of man held over Dublin killing
Gardaí investigating the murder of a woman at her home in south Dublin late on Friday night have released without charge a man they were questioning about the killing, writes Conor Lally.
The 57-year-old woman, whose body was found at her home in Willow Vale, Ballybrack, has not been formally named but was named by sources as Carmel Breen, a mother of three adult children.
Gardaí were alerted to a disturbance at her house just after 7.30pm on Friday. The woman was examined at the scene by a doctor who pronounced her dead.
A postmortem on Saturday revealed she had been strangled. The case was initially classified as "assault causing harm" but when the results of the postmortem became known it was upgraded to a murder investigation. A file on the case has been sent to the DPP.
A 60-year-old man was arrested on Friday night and was taken to Dún Laoghaire Garda station where he was questioned under Section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act.
He was released without charge yesterday after giving a statement to gardaí.
