Police yesterday released Mark De Abreu who had been called in for questioning in the recent execution-style killing of Ricardo Rodrigues.
He was sent on self bail moments after a High Court hearing into his detention had ended.
De Abreu’s lawyer Mark Waldron had filed Habeas Corpus proceedings asking that the police show cause why his client should remain in custody. The Charlestown resident turned himself in to police on Monday and was subsequently placed under arrest.
In an invited comment the attorney said that his client was released just after the court made the order absolute.
