Gardai are still questioning two people about the murders of a couple and two children in Waterford.

Gardai investigating the murders of Philip and Kim English and two of their sons in an arson attack this week, made their first arrests yesterday.

A man in his 20's and a woman in her 30's were detained under anti-gang laws - meaning Gardai have a full 7 days to question them.

Two other children injured in the firebombing on Tuesday morning are still fighting for life in hospital -

The investigation has been described by investigators as 'active and intensive' and is understood to centre on drug-debt intimidation.

The Irish Examiner reports today that families impacted by the issue are planning a Dail protest to highlight their anger and frustration.
