Man arrested for double murder

GARDAI investigating the murder of a mother and daughter have arrested a 40-year-old man. The suspect was yesterday being questioned about the killings of Jolanta Lubiene (27) and her eight-year-old child Enrika in Co Kerry.

The pair were discovered dead in their home in the Langford Downs estate just outside Killorglin last Sunday.

The arrested man was held under section 30 of the Offences Against the State Act at Killarney Garda Station.

Ms Lubiene, originally from Lithuania, was last seen at around 1.50pm on June 15 on Langford Street, walking towards her semi-detached home.
