Four people have been arrested as part of an investigation into the disappearance and suspected murder of a couple who have been missing for over five years.
William Maughan and Anastasija Varslavane, who was originally from Latvia, were reported missing from Laytown, Co Meath in April, 2015.
Gardaí made a fourth arrest this evening. A man in his 20s was arrested in Dublin and is being held at a Garda station.
Two men, aged in their 50s and 60s, and one woman, aged in her 40s, who were arrested this morning remain detained under Section 30 of the Offences Against the State Act, 1939.
Searches that were taking place today at a location in Co Meath have now ended.
The case was upgraded to a murder investigation in September 2016.
Gardaí are continuing to appeal to anyone with information relating to this investigation to contact them at Ashbourne Garda Station on 01-801-0600 or the Garda Confidential Line on 1800-666-111.
