Police have arrested a third crew member of the Polar Nanoq, a Greenlandic trawler, on suspicion that he knows something about the disappearance of Birna Brjánsdóttir, missing since Saturday morning. The two men arrested earlier today on board the vessel are Greenlandic but the nationality of the third has not been disclosed yet. 

All three of them will be interrogated upon arrival in Iceland this evening.  Search of the harbour in Hafnarfjörður continues and divers are also searching in the harbour, despite the darkness of evening. 

Police still have no clue as to the whereabouts of Birna Brjánsdóttir or what happened to her.
