A spokesperson from the PSNI told TheJournal.ie that three detectives had travelled to the country and that “their work will take a week to complete.”

Michaela, who was the daughter of Tyrone football manager Mickey Harte, was strangled to death in January 2011 while on honeymoon with her husband John McAreavey.
