Gardaí in Dublin have arrested a man in connection with their investigation into the murder of a man whose skeletal remains were found earlier this year.
Kenneth Fetherston, who was 26, was last seen on September 22nd, 2009 at Landy's Industrial Estate on the Knocklyon Road in Dublin.
He left his apartment at the Tallaght Cross Hotel shortly before 9am that morning, driving a red Honda Civic. The car was found in a lay-by on the N11 near Gorey, Co Wexford four days later.
Remains found in a ditch at Military Road, Rathfarnham on January 31st last were later identified as those of Mr Fetherston.
Gardaí said they arrested a 26-year-old man in Rathfarnham this morning in connection with the investigation. He is being detained at Tallaght Garda station under section 30 of the Offences Against the State Act 1939.
Three men and a woman were arrested and questioned in relation to the case last February and all were released without charge.
It is believed Mr Fetherston may have been killed when he sought the return of money he had given to somebody known to him.
Gardaí do not believe he was involved in criminal activity
