Detectives in Northern Ireland investigating the murder of a mother-of-four in Belfast have appealed for a taxi driver to come forward.

Police want to question the driver of a white Vauxhall Cavalier taxi who they believe may have picked up 47-year-old Geraldine Kane and two people, including Thomas Graham who they want to question, on the night she was brutally stabbed to death.

The taxi-driver was believed to have picked them up from a pub on the Glen Road a few minutes before 12.30am on Monday July 19th.

The married woman's body was found in a flat in Cavendish Square where rooms have been let out by a private landlord.

Detectives said one person was dropped off by the taxi in the lower Falls area. The taxi then drove onto Cavendish Street where the pair got out at around 12.40 am.

Police also want to speak to anyone who saw the any of the trio getting out of the taxi.
