Search for Romanian teen hits ‘stalemate’

GARDAÍ investigating the mysterious disappearance of a Romanian teenager have reached a “stalemate” in their investigations.

Senior sources yesterday described the case as “most unusual”.

Gardaí launched a search along a section of Dublin’s Grand Canal last week after it received confidential information that a 19-year-old Romanian, Marioara Rostas, had been shot dead and her body dumped at a certain location on the canal.
