Gardaí have revealed today (Friday) that the search they are conducting as part of the investigation into the murder of Kilkenny woman Jo Jo Dullard will continue into next week.

"The search operation on open ground at a location in Co. Wicklow near the Wicklow/Kildare border remains ongoing. It is expected to continue over the weekend and into early next week," a garda statement at lunchtime on Friday said.

Investigations are ongoing.

An Garda Síochána appeals to anyone with any information, no matter how small or insignificant you might believe it to be, to contact Naas Garda Station on 045 884 300 or any Garda station, or anyone who wishes to provide information confidentially should contact the Garda Confidential Line on 1800 666 111.

Gardaí investigating the disappearance and murder of Josephine "Jo Jo” Dullard revealed last Monday morning that they had arrested a male on suspicion of her murder. He was released from garda custody on Tuesday, without charge.

Last Saturday was the 29th anniversary of Jo Jo's disappearance and gardaí had issued a new appeal for information.
