Two more charged with Queensland murder

Two more people have been charged with murdering central Queensland man Timothy Pullen, who disappeared in 2012.

Two more people have been charged with the murder of a central Queensland man who vanished almost three years ago.

Police arrested a 27-year-old Dysart man on Tuesday in Mackay and a 39-year-old Lowood man was arrested in Brisbane on Wednesday morning.

Both have been charged with murdering Timothy Pullen, and will appear in court in Brisbane and Mackay on Wednesday.

Mr Pullen disappeared in April 2012. His body has never been found.

Police allege his death may have been sparked by a $30,000 drug debt.

This week's arrests follow those of five others charged as part of the investigation.

Zane Tray Lincoln, 36, was charged with Mr Pullen's murder in 2013.

Kiera Jeannette McKay, 27, and Nicholas Voorwinden, 32, have been charged with Mr Pullen's manslaughter, while Stephen Dale Renwick and Luke Shayne Kister have been charged with being an accessory after the fact.
