    Joanne’s family has been updated, and they continue to be supported by family liaison officers.

    Detective Chief Superintendent Ceri Hughes said: “Our team of detectives and specialist staff are continuing to piece together the circumstances behind Joanne’s tragic death and I would still urge anyone who has information, either about her death or what happened at the property in Llys Illtyd on Sunday evening, to come forward – the smallest piece of information could be of vital importance.
    “I would like to thank the local community for their support of the investigation so far and to everyone who has spoken to us and provided information.”
