A murder inquiry was launched today after a man was stabbed to death in Northern Ireland.
Paddy Fleming (40), died in hospital after being attacked at a house in Coleraine, Co Derry.
Detectives have arrested a 25-year-old man.
Fleming, a suspected drug dealer, whose illegal wealth brought him under scrutiny from the Assets Recovery Agency, was knifed at Hazelbank Road just after 3.30am.
It is understood the man being held was arrested at another location in the town.
The dead man, married with at least two children, had seen ARA seize control of his five bedroom house. Horses and an equestrian arena were also taken in December 2004 after the High Court in Belfast was told they had been bought with drug money.
During searches of Fleming's home and an apartment he owned in the town, £36,000 in cash was discovered. Examinations found the money was contaminated by traces of ecstasy and cannabis.
Meanwhile two men were being questioned today by detectives investigating a stabbing in Lisburn, Co Antrim. They were arrested after another man was knifed during an attack in the Bridge Street area of the city.
The victim was taken to hospital following the overnight incident but his injuries were not thought to be life threatening.
Police have urged any witnesses to contact detectives investigating the stabbing.
