The military authorities advise that the military police investigation is still ongoing into the alleged larceny of diesel oil from military vehicles in County Donegal. It would be inappropriate to comment on the details of the investigation but it can be confirmed that a member of the Defence Forces has been interviewed in the course of the investigation. As the investigation is continuing and several lines of inquiry remain to be completed it is not possible to determine when the investigation will be concluded.
