Gardai have arrested two youths in connection with the killing of 14 year-old Ana Kriegel.

The teenager's body was discovered 1km from a park where she was last seen in Lucan, South Dublin, four days after she went missing on May 14.

It is believed the schoolgirl, from Leixlip in Co Kildare, was sexually assaulted and beaten to death with sticks and bricks.

This morning, Gardai confirmed that two male youths were arrested yesterday as part of their investigation into the teen's killing.

The two are being held at two separate Dublin Garda Station under section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act 1984.

A book of condolences for Ana will remain open to the public at County Hall in Tallaght, Dublin until later this evening.
