Man arrested by detectives investigating Lisa Dorrian murder released

A 48-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of murder and related offenses in the ongoing investigation into Lisa Dorrian’s 2005 disappearance, marking the fourth recent arrest.

  • On March 5, detectives arrested a 48-year-old man in the Craigavon area on suspicion of murder, assisting offenders, and preventing a lawful and decent burial.
  • Lisa Dorrian, 25, from Bangor, was last seen on February 27, 2005, after attending a party at Ballyhalbert Caravan Park; police believe she was murdered that night or early the next morning.
  • This was the fourth recent arrest in the probe, following a 40-year-old man’s release on bail after his March 4 arrest in Millisle and last week arrests in Bangor and Scotland.
  • He was released on bail pending further enquiries, Detective Chief Inspector Kerrie Foreman said 'Twenty-one years ago, a loving family were robbed of their daughter and sister.'
