People in the North shielding the killers of Lisa Dorrian (25) should identify where her body was dumped, a bishop urged yesterday.

Ms Dorrian went missing from a caravan site in Ballyhalbert on the Co Down coast last February. Despite extensive searches, no trace of the Bangor woman has been found.

The Church of Ireland Bishop of Down and Dromore, the Right Rev Harold Miller, said: "It is morally unacceptable to leave a family not knowing where their loved one is to be found."

He urged people with information about Ms Dorrian's disappearance to visit a memorial website set up by the Dorrian family.

"At the beginning of a new year, the whole sense of her loss has been greatly heightened. We can only imagine how her family must be feeling.

"Thankfully, the new website about Lisa set up last month has had many responses and messages of goodwill, but, although helpful, we need more at this time."

When the website - www.lisadorrian.co.uk - was launched Ms Dorrian's sister Joanne said she hoped it would bring global attention to the case. It has attracted some five million hits, and messages of support from as far afield as Australia and the US.
