Owen Creaney, 40, whose body was found on Saturday

The PSNI have extended the detention of two people arrested after the body of Lurgan man Owen Creaney. 40, was found in a wheelie bin outside a Craigavon house on Saturday night.

Police have said that Mr Creaney was the victim of a sustained attack.

Mr Creaney was disabled, vulnerable and required the use of a hearing aid.

The police have been granted permission to detain a woman, 23, and a man, 27, until Tuesday.

 "I would hope that the community would be rightly disgusted by the attempt to conceal Owen's body after this brutal murder," said Detective Chief Inspector Richard Campbell.

"Owen was 40. In fact, he celebrated his 40th birthday last Saturday, 28 June. He was a frail and vulnerable man. Although he was only 40, he had significant mobility issues which meant he required the aid of a walking frame or stick to get about.

"I think it is important for the community to reject this violent assault on Owen and contact police with any information which they have."
