Gardaí say they have recovered over 90 per cent of the remains of a woman found in the Wicklow Mountains

She has been named as Patricia O’Connor – a grandmother in her early 60s from Rathfarnham in South Dublin.

Searches are continuing in the Wicklow Mountains for more clues into how she died - while a man in his 30s remains in custody in Wexford as part of the investigation.

Locals have described Patricia O'Connor as a lovely woman.

This neighbour still can’t believe what happened.
