A 32-year old man was today being questioned by Police in connection with the murder of 31-year-old Matthew Charles Clarke.

Mr. Clarke’s body was found yesterday at 3.41 p.m. at his North Shore Road, Pembroke, home. He was pronounced dead at 4.02 p.m. by a doctor.

At a press conference this afternoon, Police were unable to give any information on how Mr. Clarke died or if a weapon was used, however they said he had a number of injuries to his body.

Officers are awaiting the arrival of a forensic pathologist from Toronto, Canada, to conduct an autopsy on Mr. Clarke’s body before the exact cause of death is released.

Police today confirmed they are treating the death as a murder because of the condition of the scene and how the body was found and are appealing for witnesses or anyone who may have any relevant information to contact the Serious Crime Unit at 299 4315.
