Michaela and John McAreavey on the island of mauritius

By Q Radio news

Stormont's First and Deputy First ministers say they're not convinced the government of Mauritius is serious about catching the killers of Michaela McAreavey.

The 27-year-old  Tyrone woman was killed while on honeymoon on the  island in January 2011.

A daughter of three-time All-Ireland winning Tyrone manager Mickey Harte - Mrs McAreavey was strangled in her hotel room.

In 2012 two hotel workers were found not guilty of her murder after a jury trial.

Michelle O'Neill says she and Arlene Foster have written a joint letter to the Island's Prime minister Pravind Jugnauth urging him to urge local authorities to catch the killers.
