Belfast mother of 10 Jean McConville was abducted, killed and secretly buried by the IRA in 1972. Her body was not found until 2003.

A number of people, including Sinn Féin leader Gerry Adams, have recently been arrested and questioned over the murder.

Mr Adams was released on Sunday without charge after several days of questioning. The politician has strongly denied any involvement in the abduction and murder of McConville.
