Detectives from the Police Service of Northern Ireland's Major Investigation Team,

who are investigating the murder of journalist Lyra McKee, conducted a search of a production company in Paris earlier today (Tuesday 7 December) led by two French Judges, with the assistance of French police.


Detectives believe that a camera crew from the production company was in

Derry/Londonderry throughout the week of Lyra's murder.


A European Investigation Order was carefully considered, sought and granted by Belfast Crown Court and the search was later approved and supported by senior members of the French judiciary.

A number of items have been recovered for further examination.
