Jury in Slieve League murder trial resumes deliberations

The jury in the trial of a former couple accused of murdering a man in Donegal has resumed its deliberations.

39-year-old Alan Vial of Drumanoo Head in Killybegs and 23-year-old Nikita Burns of Carrick in Donegal, both deny the murder of Robert Wilkin.

The remains of the 66-year-old were found in waters off Sliabh Ligh in 2023.

The jurors have been considering their verdict for around six hours.
