Police have been searching a landfill site near Cwmgors in the murder investigation of Michael O'Leary.

The 55-year-old, from Nantgaredig, failed to return home from work on Monday, January 27.

Specialist officers have been at Pwllfawatkin tip on Thursday as part of the search.

On Monday, Andrew Jones, 52, from Bronwydd Road, Bronwydd, Carmarthen, was charged with his murder and appeared in court in Swansea on Wednesday, February 5.

Detective Chief Inspector Paul Jones said: “We are very grateful for the support from the community and the wider public over the last 11 days.

“In particular, we would like to thank those who have come forward with information about a cyclist who was spotted travelling between Capel Dewi and Cwmffrwd on the evening of 27th January.

“We have received a number of valuable calls following this appeal, but are still yet to identify the cyclist.

“I would like to re-iterate that any detail – no matter how small it may seem to you – could prove vital to this ongoing investigation, and would urge people to get in touch if they remember seeing a cyclist in a high vis jacket in the area that night.

“This includes any dash cam, private CCTV, or ‘smart doorbell’ footage they might have.

“We also remain keen to speak to anyone who saw Michael’s vehicle - a silver Nissan Navara - between Cwmffrwd and Capel Dewi between 8pm and 10pm on Monday, January 27.

“The search will continue as we explore all possible avenues.

"Our thoughts remain with Michael’s family at this very difficult time."
