The St Andrew North Police say investigations into the murder of popular attorney Berriston Bryan are going well.

Deputy Superintendent Alter-moth Campbell, head of crime for the division, told THE STAR the police are starting to put together bits and pieces of what might have happened to the 72-year-old lawyer. He, however, said the police were not ready to make the developments public until further investigations were carried out.

Berry, who represented Sheldon Pusey, the accused in the Peter King murder case, was found dead at his Stony Hill home on Monday morning. His body reportedly bore signs of a brutal attack.

It was speculated that his death might have been linked to the Peter King case and the much-talked-about tapes, allegedly depicting King's homosexual lifestyle, but the police are unable to confirm.

Pusey was sentenced to 15 years in jail after he pleaded guilty to manslaughter, citing self-defence as his motive
