Linda Mulhall FREED Scissor Sister Linda Mulhall has not returned to prison to visit her murdering sister.

The Irish Mirror has learned the mother of four, who was close to sibling Charlotte while locked up at Dublin’s Dochas Centre, has stayed away since walking free on January 2.

A source said Linda, who was seen as a model prisoner by staff, wants to start a new life and leave her past behind her.

A source told the Irish Mirror: “Linda never caused any hassle while in prison and just got on with it.

“She was a very talented hairdresse­r and beautician and helped to run the jail salon with Charlotte.

“They were close enough but like any siblings had their fights and fell out from time to time.

“She is trying to start over and have a fresh start.

“Linda has not been to visit Charlotte since her release at the start of year. One thought is she doesn’t want to be recognised going in.

“She has managed to go unnoticed so far and wants that to continue.”

The source added is no longer in a relationsh­ip with a former she prison officer from the jail. The source continued: “That relationsh­ip came to an end. It had finished before she was released from jail.

“Linda is thought to have been devastated as she hoped to start a new life with him when she was freed. “She had reportedly told other inmates they were going to set up home and was looking forward to having a quiet, normal life with him.”

It’s believed Linda, who was handed a 15-year sentence for her role in the killing of her mother Kathleen’s boyfriend Farah Swaleh Noor, has also set up home in the UK.

Linda, 42, and Charlotte chopped up Noor at Richmond Cottage in Ballybough, North Dublin, in 2005. Linda admitted hitting him “a good few times” on the head with a claw hammer, while Charlotte stabbed the 36-year-old up to 20 times with a kitchen knife.

They spent hours sawing up his body in the bathroom and dumped his limbs and torso in the Royal Canal.

They took his head on the bus to Tallaght in West Dublin, where it was hidden in a park before being moved. It has never been recovered.
