In a statement to BBC News NI on Friday the police said: “Following the Katie Simpson case, the Police Service of Northern Ireland is reviewing three cases recorded as ********.”

Creswell, her sister’s partner, had called 999 and pretended he had found her hanging from a stairwell.

Multiple red flags were missed before Creswell was eventually charged with her *******.

The possibility of other such cases was raised by political representatives at a Policing Board meeting at the start of September.
