A statement from the PSNI said that it would be ‘inappropriate’ for it to comment due to the ongoing Ombudsman investigation.
The family say they last saw Kelly on Wednesday 13 March and that she had gone for a night out in Monaghan on Friday 15 March. Statements given to An Garda Síochána say that Kelly had been missing from the early hours of Saturday morning, with her body discovered more than 24 hours later at around 8.30am on Sunday 17 March.
