On Tuesday June 12, officers arrested a 31-year-old woman from Wombwell on suspicion of perverting the course of justice. She has since been released under investigation.

A 22-year-old man was also arrested earlier this month, on suspicion of murder, burglary and theft and released under investigation.

Lee Trevor Fueloep, 40, of Willow Garth, Wombwell, was charged with murder and burglary on Sunday June 4. He remains in custody to reappear at Sheffield Crown Court later this month.
