The bodies of two Northern Ireland women murdered in Turkey were flown back to Dublin today.
Marion Elizabeth Graham and Kathy Dinsmore were killed while on extended holiday in Kusadasi.
A local waiter, Recep Cetin, the prime suspect in their double murder, may be held in prison until the end of Ramadan after a prosecutor was appointed to oversee charges.
It is likely the suspect, whose true age is not known, will be held in custody for at least another week as the Islamic holy month ends on August 30th.
The women’s bodies are expected to be repatriated to Northern Ireland tomorrow after private arrangements were finalised with funeral directors in Turkey.
Shannon Graham, Ms Graham’s daughter, and her mother’s former partner Raymond McGuinness, have already returned home.
The two women, both aged 53 and from Newry, Co Down, were murdered in woods 120km north of the holiday resort of Kusadasi last Thursday.
