A man and a woman have been arrested following an investigation into the movements of police murderer Dezi Freeman, who was shot dead.
Victoria Police arrested a man and a woman at two properties in the state's northeast on Saturday morning but were released in the afternoon, pending further enquiries.
"Detectives from Taskforce Summit arrested two people this morning as part of their ongoing investigation into the movements of Desmond Freeman," a police spokeswoman said in a statement.
The pair were interviewed by police, and it has been confirmed that they were not Freeman's family members.
The 56-year-old fugitive was shot dead in a hail of bullets by specialist police on a remote property in Thologolong, near Walwa on the Victoria-NSW border, on Monday after a seven-month manhunt.
Freeman was wanted for the alleged fatal shooting of Neal Thompson and Vadim de Waart-Hottart, who were among a team of police officers serving a warrant at his Porepunkah home in late August.
