Police have begun a murder inquiry after a man’s body was found at an apartment in Co Armagh last night.

The man (32) was found in the Castle Street area of Armagh at about midday. A postmortem will be carried out.

Sinn Féin MLA Cathal Boylan said: "In a relatively small city such as Armagh, such a death has a very
profound effect.

"I would appeal for anyone with any information as to what happened to this gentleman, no matter how
small or irrelevant they think it may be, to pass that information on to the investigating team."
