Man acquitted of Marioara murder

A Dublin criminal has been found not guilty of murdering teenager Marioara Rostas in the city six years ago.

The 18-year-old died of four gunshot wounds to her head before her body was buried in a shallow grave, where it was discovered four years later.

Alan Wilson, aged 35, a father of four from New Street Gardens in the city, had pleaded not guilty at the Central Criminal Court to murdering Ms Rostas at Brabazon St, The Coombe, Dublin, between January 7 and January 8, 2008.
