Two released in Kilnaleck death case

Paul Neilan

The two people arrested and questioned in relation to the death of a woman in Kilnaleck last weekend have both been released. The two were being questioned in relation to the death of mother-of-one Antra Ozolina (49) who was found dead at her home in the village on Saturday (June 28). At first it was thought that she died by suicide but Garda investions led to the opening of a 'full investigation', which does not rule out murder.

The woman was from Latvia and worked as a mushroom picker in nearby Breffni Mushroroms. The Celt understands that she was found with a length of rope around her neck but a subsequent post-mortem in Navan ruled out suicide.

One male and one female were arrested under Section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act 1984 and released yesterday (Thursday, July 3) from Ballyconnell and Cavan garda stations. It is understood that the male, a Latvian, was on temporary release from an eastern European prison and recently moved into the area.

An incident room has been opened in Cavan Garda Station, which can be contacted on (049) 4368800 and investigations are ongoing.
