Detectives investigating the 1972 abduction and murder of mother-of-10 Jean McConville have arrested a 73-year-old man.
Detective Inspector Neil McGuiness said the man from the Dunmurray area had been taken to Antrim police station for questioning.
No one has ever been charged with the murder of the 37-year-old widow, who was dragged, screaming away from her children at their West Belfast home at gun point by up to 12 men and women.
Mrs McConville was abducted, interrogated and murdered by the IRA in 1972 after being falsely accused of passing information to the security forces.
She was shot in the back of the head and secretly buried in a shallow grave on a beach near Dundalk, County Louth, 50 miles from her home.
