GARDAÍ have made a number of arrests in an ongoing investigation into the murder of Lee Slattery whose body was discovered in Co. Limerick in 2010.

The 24-year-old’s body was found in a shallow grave near a wooded area in the derelict Delmege House estate near Moyross on May 31, 2010.

At the time of his death, the father-of-one, who grew up on Monabraher Road in Ballynanty on the northside of Limerick City, was described as a “popular young man in the community from a well-respected family”.

When his body was found he had been missing for four days, after last being seen when he visited a friend’s house in Limerick city on the night of May 27, 2010.

Gardaí in Limerick who are investigating the murder have made five arrests since the weekend.
