A woman arrested in connection with the murder of a 2 year old girl in Cork is due before court this morning.
Santina Cawley was found critically injured in the Elderwood Park flats complex just off Cork's Boreenmanna Road on July 5th.
The infant was brought to Cork University Hospital where she died a number of hours later.
Gardai say a 35-year-old woman was arrested this morning as part of the murder investigation.
Voluntary statements were taken from Sanita’s father and his girlfriend, who is not the child’s mother.
The couple was in the apartment where the toddler was found when the alarm was raised.
The results of a post-mortem into Sanita’s death were not released for operational reasons.
The woman was arrested over her death this morning, and is expected to appear before Cork District Court at 10.30am.
