A man has been released on bail after questioning about the murder of a German backpacker in Northern Ireland 30 years ago. The 18-year-old's death in April 1988 remains one of the region's most high-profile unsolved murders. The suspect, aged 61, was held in the Loughguile area of Co Antrim early on Monday morning and later released pending further police inquiries. The arrests come weeks after a much-publicised series of appeals to mark the 30th anniversary of the murder. But for reasons as yet unexplained, she ended up going in the opposite direction and was found dead in remote woodland two weeks later.
