POLICE IN THE North have begun a murder investigation after the body of Paul Gerard Curran was found in Armagh yesterday.
The 29-year-old was discovered at a house in Manor Drive in Lurgan shortly after 2.50pm yesterday afternoon.
In a statement, detective chief inspector Eamonn Corrigan said that a post-mortem would now be carried out to determine the cause of death.
