Sister of murdered girl calls for public inquiry

THE sister of a murdered schoolgirl who went missing almost 30 years ago after attending a disco in Donegal is appealing for a public inquiry into the handling of the case by police.

Arlene Arkinson, a Tyrone schoolgirl, was 15 years old when she disappeared after going to a disco in Bundoran with her friend Donna Quinn and Sean Hegarty, the then boyfriend of Ms Quinn.

A 14-year inquest into the death of the teenager came to a close in July 2021, concluding that Arlene was murdered by convicted child killer and rapist Robert Howard on the morning of August 14, 1994.
