A man has been arrested by detectives investigating the murder of Kevin Conway.

The 53-year-old has been taken into custody for questioning about the killing in west Belfast earlier this month.

Mr Conway (26) died after being shot multiple times at his home in the Greenan area.

The victim had been on bail awaiting trial for the murder of Shane Whitla in Co Armagh last year.

A PSNI spokesman said: “Detectives investigating the murder of Kevin Conway in west Belfast on January 9 have arrested a 53-year-old man in the west Belfast area.

“He has been taken to Musgrave Serious Crime Suite, where he remains in custody for further questioning.”
