A 49-year-old man was charged last night with the murder of a woman in the North who was strangled and whose body was dumped in a car park.

Police in the North have arrested a man in connection with the murder of a 24-year-old woman whose body was found in a car park in Ballymena earlier this year.

A vulnerable young woman was brutally murdered and dumped like trash, a priest told her Belfast funeral today.

A vulnerable young woman strangled to death, wrapped in a duvet and dumped in a car park may also have been subjected to a sickening sex attack, it emerged tonight.

Police in the North have launched a formal murder inquiry following the death of a woman in Ballymena, Co Antrim, earlier this week.
