A preliminary review of the murder of Sophie Tuscan du Plantier will  help the Garda Commissioner decide if it will be investigated as a cold case.

The Echo reports a preliminary examination of the historic case is being carried out for a number of months and a report will then be issued to Commissioner Drew Harris.

The French woman was found dead near her holiday home in Schull in December 1996.

Ian Bailey was convicted in absentia of her murder at a trial in France in 2019.

Last October a third attempt by France to have him extradited was rejected by the High Court.
