Mr Boreland was hit a number of times with a shotgun as he walked to his flat in the Sunningdale Gardens area on August 7. He died at the scene.
Last week three men aged 61, 33 and 29 appeared in court charged with perverting the course of justice.
The charges relate to the destruction of a silver Renault Megane car that police believe was connected to the murder.
All three were remanded in custody.
A fourth man, aged 33, who was arrested in the Newtownabbey area last Tuesday, was released pending a report to the Public Prosecution Service.
