DETECTIVES HAVE MADE two arrests in connection with the death of Seamus Doherty in 2012.
Doherty (67) was found dead in his bathroom in the early hours of 17 June, 2012. It was initially thought that he died as a result of an accident.
However, following a post-mortem examination, it was established that he died in suspicious circumstances.
Arrests have previously been made as part of the investigation, but no charges were brought.
Detectives investigating the man’s death have made two further arrests in the past 24 hours – a 57-year-old woman last night and 51-year-old man this afternoon.
Both are being held at Letterkenny Garda Station.
In June 2014, Sinn Féin’s justice spokesperson Pádraigh Mac Lochlainn told the Dáil that a complaint by the deceased’s family over the garda investigation had been delayed due to a lack of garda co-operation.
Minster for Justice Frances Fitzgerald said there had been issues relating to GSOC receiving the necessary documentation from gardaí, but this had been resolved.
