"Our Homicide Governance Review team keep every undetected and unresolved case under review, and will continue to investigate any new information or lines of enquiry which come to light.

"The passage of time is no barrier to our investigations, and a re-investigation into Mrs McLaughlin's murder has now resulted in the arrest and charge of a man 35 years later."
