A man and woman arrested on suspicion of murdering Lisa Dorrian have been released on bail.

The 49-year-old man and 34-year-old woman were arrested on Friday in Newtownards.

They were bailed on Saturday afternoon pending further police inquiries.

Police had earlier been granted additional time to question the suspects.

The 25-year-old Bangor woman was last seen alive at Ballyhalbert Caravan Park on the County Down coast on February 28 2005.

Earlier this week, police started a new large-scale search operation at an airfield beside the caravan park.

Officers said they were using fresh information and new techniques to comb the area.
