Reward of £20,000 offered for information on north Belfast murder

A reward of up to £20,000 is being offered for information that leads to convictions over the murder of a man in north Belfast.

Martin Gavin, 47, died four weeks after being stabbed at a house in the Harcourt Drive area on January 7.

The Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) has issued a renewed appeal for information.

The independent Crimestoppers charity has offered the five-figure reward for anonymous information it receives that leads to the arrest and conviction of those responsible for the murder.

Detective Chief Inspector John Caldwell said: "Mr Gavin's life, at just 47 years old, has been cut short, and a family have been left bereft.

"A murder investigation has been launched and, today, I am appealing to anyone with information to do the right thing and come forward.

"Were you in the Harcourt Drive area in the early hours of January 7? Did you see or hear a disturbance or anyone acting suspiciously?"

Any information or dashcam footage can be passed on to PSNI via 101 quoting reference number 188 of 07/01/22.

Crimestoppers can be contacted anonymously on 0800 555 111.
