Gardaí investigating the murder of a 37-year-old Englishman in west Cork yesterday arrested a seventh person for questioning about the killing and further arrests are expected in the coming days.

Detectives arrested the 44-year-old English woman at Cork airport at about 12.20pm yesterday after she had disembarked from a flight from Germany and brought her to Bandon Garda station for questioning about the death of Garry Bull.

The woman was arrested on suspicion of murdering Mr Bull, whose body was found in a slurry tank at a farm at Shanlaragh, Dunmanway, Co Cork, last Thursday.
