A 68-year-old man was released last night after being arrested early yesterday morning in Ballygar. A 36-year-old man, who was arrested at 11.45 a.m. at Castlerea, Co Roscommon, was also released just before midnight having been held at Roscommon Garda station under Section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act 1984.
Ms Nolan, a retired national school teacher and mother of six, was found dead inside the front door of her home in Ballaghlea, Ballygar on the Roscommon-Galway border early on February 16th and was last seen alive two days before that.
