Lisa Dorrian is believed to have died on the night of 27 February 2005 or in the early hours of the following morning

A 40-year-old man who was arrested in connection with the disappearance and murder of 25-year-old Lisa Dorrian has been released.

He was arrested in Millisle on Wednesday on suspicion of assisting offenders and withholding information.

Lisa has not been seen since she attended a house party at a caravan park in the County Down village of Ballyhalbert, at the end of February 2005.

He has been released on bail pending further enquiries.

It comes days after the 21st anniversary of Lisa's disappearance.

Det Ch Insp Kerrie Foreman said: "It's been 21 long and painful years for Lisa's loving family. They have never given up their search for answers and justice and, likewise, our determination remains steadfast."

Police are appealing to anyone with information to come forward.
