Limerick post postmortems inconclusive

Post mortem examinations were carried out on the badly decomposed remains last night, but no cause of death was established.

The bodies have yet to be identified, but they've been named locally as 56 year old farmer Thomas Ruttle and 65 year old Julia Holmes – who was wanted by Gardai, the PSNI and the FBI on fraud charges.

It's understood their remains were in the house for some time before being discovered by burglars who contacted the Gardai.
