Detective Chief Inspector Justyn Galloway said: "We are carrying out a full investigation into Sean's death. We now believe Sean was assaulted in the hours prior to his death and I am particularly keen to speak to anyone who may have more information in relation to this.

"We have examined CCTV footage and spoken to a number of witnesses. We will also be carrying out house to house enquiries in the area over the coming days. It is vital that we speak to anyone who may have more information in relation to Sean's movements that night and what happened in the apartment."
