Police were called after family and a neighbour found 86-year-old Una dead in her bungalow on Magazine Lane on Sunday, 13 January 2013.
She was last seen alive two days earlier on Friday, 11 January, and spoke to a friend on the phone around 5pm on Saturday, the day before her body was discovered.

A small fire broke out but did not spread to the rest of the house and extinguished itself.
