A 40-YEAR-OLD woman and 42-year-old man arrested by detectives investigating the disappearance and murder of Lisa Dorrian, have both been released on bail pending further enquiries.
They were arrested on Wednesday on suspicion of murder, assisting offenders, withholding information and preventing a lawful and decent burial.
Lisa, who was from Bangor in Co Down, was last seen alive on the night of Sunday, 27 February 2005 at a party in Ballyhalbert Caravan Park.
It is believed she was murdered that night or in the early hours of the following morning.
She was 25 years old.
PSNI Detective Chief Inspector Kerrie Foreman acknowledged the support of Police Scotland, as well as the PSNI’s Cross-Border Transit Officers.
The detective added: “It’s almost 21 years since Lisa’s disappearance and murder. That’s 21 years of torture for a loving family.
“I am keen to take every opportunity to encourage anyone with information to do the right thing and come forward.”
In December, the PSNI arrested a 68-year-old man on suspicion of Lisa’s murder. He was subsequently released following questioning.
In February last year, the PSNI released CCTV footage of some of Lisa’s last known movements in Co Down.
