A 36-year-old man is expected to appear at a special sitting of Craigavon Magistrate's Court today after being charged last night with the murder of an 18year-old Catholic woman last Tuesday. He is one of two men who were detained by the RUC for questioning on Tuesday. The second man was released without being charged on Thursday night. The suspect is charged with the murder of Bernadette Martin at Soldierstown Road, Aghalee, Co Antrim, in the early hours of Tuesday morning. Her funeral took place yesterday. An RUC spokesman said the suspect is from the Aghalee area.
