Detectives investigating the murder of Ashley Dale in Old Swan have conditionally bailed two people and are continuing to appeal for information.

A 25-year-old man and a 21-year-old woman, both from Liverpool, were arrested on Wednesday 24 August. Both have now been conditionally bailed to a later date pending further enquiries.

Detective Chief Inspector Cath Cummings said: “We are grateful for all the information given to the investigation team so far and would ask that people continue to come forward. Something you may think is insignificant could prove vital, so let us assess every piece of information and take the appropriate action.

“Our thoughts remain with Ashley’s family in this awful time, and I’d ask anyone who knows what happened to do the right thing and support us and Ashley’s family in seeking justice.”
