A body has been recovered from Lough Erne by a specialist team from the Police Service of Northern Ireland's Serious Crime Branch searching for missing Carrie Mullane, a 39-year-old woman from Limerick.

Mullane was last seen in the Enniskillen area on 10 October when she travelled to County Fermanagh from Limerick. A missing person investigation was launched on 29 October, with detectives saying they believe she may have been murdered.

A man has already appeared in court charged with her murder. On Sunday, a man in his 30s and a woman in her 60s from County Fermanagh were arrested on suspicion of murder.

Detective Superintendent Richard Thornton, from the PSNI's Serious Crime Branch, said: 'Police have been in contact with Carrie Mullane's family to inform them of this development, and we continue to provide them with support. We now must complete the formal identification process, which may take a period of time.'

Tornton said the investigation is continuing and appealed for anyone with information to contact police on 101, quoting reference number 272 of 29/10/26. He also asked for anyone with CCTV, mobile phone or dash cam footage to share it with police.
