Three Arrested For Airport Murder
Three people have been arrested in connection with the murder of a man at Dublin Airport in April 2007.
Estonian man, Valeri Ranert, was pulled from his car and attacked by a gang whilst parked at a lay-by outside Dublin Airport around 1.00am on April 30 of last year.
An Estonian woman was with Mr Ranert at the time of the attack. She managed to flee and raise the alarm, but Mr Ranert was left lying on the roadside as the attackers made their escape.
The car was later found abandoned at a disused halting site near Darndale, off the N32.
Mr Ranert died at around 2am on the morning he was attacked.
Two people were arrested later that day, a 17-year-old and a man in his early 20s. Both were subsequently released without charge.
