A post-mortem examination is due to take place today on the body of a man found in Phoenix Park in Dublin.

The body was found near the Wellington Monument in the park yesterday morning, at around 10.20am.

They have been trying to establish if the man was homeless and may have been sleeping rough, and have been in contact with homeless agencies.

The resources of a murder investigation have been allocated, however the results of today's post-mortem examination will determine the course of the investigation.

Gardaí have said they are following all lines of inquiry and are keeping an open mind.

They are also looking to speak to a couple who were visiting the monument around 10am yesterday morning.

The couple are a man and woman in their 30s who are "possibly Italian", according to gardaí.

Officers also carried out searches of the area for a potential weapon and any other evidential material.
