PSNI Detectives Revisit The Scene Of Kevin Conway Murder

One week on from the murder of Kevin Conway, detectives from the PSNI's Major Investigation Team have revisited the scene in the Greenan area of west Belfast.

Speaking from the scene yesterday, Detective Chief Inspector Neil McGuinness said: "Today, 16 January, is one week on since this brutal attack took place. It was last Tuesday night, at approximately 9.30pm, when Kevin was murdered in his own home. He was shot multiple times and, sadly, pronounced dead at the scene.

"We will work tirelessly to bring those responsible to justice, and tonight our officers have revisited the immediate area. We've been speaking with pedestrians, drivers and passengers, and have carried out extensive house-to-house enquiries.

Detective Chief Inspector McGuinness continued: "This ruthless killing has left a loving family heartbroken. They're going through unimaginable sorrow and pain, while an entire community is left in shock.

"I'm appealing to you, if you have any information, to please come forward. I know it's not easy, but I'm keen to offer assurance that information can be passed to Crimestoppers with total anonymity."

Crimestoppers, who are independent of police, are offering a reward of up to £20,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible for Kevin's murder. The reward is payable for information passed directly to Crimestoppers. Contact www.crimestoppers-uk.org or call the charity's 24/7 Contact Centre on 0800 555 111.

Alternatively, detectives can be contacted on 101; while information, including photos, CCTV and dash cam footage, can be provided to police through the Major Incident Public Portal at mipp.police.uk
