The boys were reported missing earlier this month.

Three people have been arrested after a pair of missing brothers were found safe in Tipperary.

Five year old Patrick Horvath and eight year old Fabricio Horvath were found in the Thurles area on Tuesday after being reported missing from their home in Northern Ireland.

Three people, two women in their 50s and 30s and one man in his 40s, were arrested under Section 17 Non-fatal Offences Against the Persons Act yesterday.

They are currently being detained at Templemore and Nenagh Garda Stations under Section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act.

Patrick and Fabricio were reported missing on May 14 after being seen getting into a black Ford car in the Limestone road area of Belfast.

At the time, the PSNI believed the boys were in the company of a relative.
