Gardaí are searching lands in Co Offaly on the back of a decision to upgrade the disappearance of Fiona Pender almost 29 years ago to a murder investigation.
The 25-year-old woman was seven months pregnant when she was last seen at her apartment on Church Street, Tullamore, by her partner John Thompson on August 23, 1996.
