A body has been discovered following a fire in the same house where a boy and his grandaunt died in an arson attack in Edenderry, Co Offaly last year.
Gardaí said they are investigating “all the circumstances” of the fire at Castleview Park in Edenderry.
Emergency services attended the fire in the early hours of Tuesday morning and remain at the scene. Local fire services have since extinguished the fire.
The body of an adult was discovered at the house, and an autopsy will be carried out to determine the cause of death, which will determine the course of any Garda investigation.
The scene is currently preserved for gardaí to carry out a forensic examination of the scene.
