Police in Northern Ireland have charged a man with the murder of a woman in her 20s in Limerick.
The body of the woman, named by gardaí late on Friday as 26 year-old Geila Ibram from Romania, was found at a home on Dock Road in the city on Tuesday afternoon.
Detectives from the PSNI’s Serious Crime Branch who are assisting An Garda Síochána with the murder investigation, said a 26-year-old man has been charged to appear in Belfast Magistrates Court on Saturday.
Meanwhile, gardaí in Limerick are continuing to investigate the murder and say they are liaising with their colleagues in the PSNI.
