A man has been charged with the murder of pensioner Adam Krzan in Co Tyrone.

Mr Krzan, 71, was found with serious injuries at a flat in the Corrainey Park area of Dungannon on February 27, and later died.

Detectives from the Police Service of Northern Ireland’s Major Investigation Team have now charged a 33-year-old man with murder.

He also faces counts of robbery and going equipped for burglary.

He is due to appear before a district judge at Dungannon Magistrates’ Court on Friday.

A 34-year-old man also arrested in connection with the murder remained in custody on Thursday afternoon.

He was being questioned on suspicion of murder, assisting offenders, withholding information and perverting the course of justice.

The two men were arrested earlier on Thursday after police conducted two searches in Dungannon area.

A number of items, including a vehicle, were seized during the operation.
