Gardaí in fresh bid for information about Deirdre Jacob

Gardaí are mounting a renewed campaign for information about the disappearance of Kildare woman Deirdre Jacob 10 years ago.

Ms Jacob was 18 when she disappeared without trace close to her home in Newbridge in July, 1998.

A woman matching her description was seen on Tara Street in Dublin the days following the disappearance.

Leaflets and posters will be handed out in Newbridge and Dublin today in an effort to jog the memories of anyone who may have useful information about the case.

They show images of what Ms Jacob might look like now, at the age of 28.
