Detectives return to scene of Gray murder
Detectives have returned to the spot where former UDA chief Jim Gray was murdered last week.
Police handed out leaflets and stopped motorists driving near the scene on the Clarawood estate on Tuesday, exactly one week after the 47-year-old was gunned down outside his father's home.
Yesterday, Gray's funeral took place at the home with members of the UDA told to stay away.
There was a small cortege and few mourners were in attendance at the graveside.
At the weekend, six people arrested in connection with the murder inquiry were released.
Police have confirmed that the involvement of the UDA was still a "major line of inquiry" in the investigation.
