A murder investigation is under way in Northern Ireland after a man's body was found in the boot of a car.
The discovery was made in the Windsor Road area of South Belfast.
A man and woman, both in their 20s, have been arrested on suspicion of murder.
Police are also examining Church Gate apartments in the Mill Street area of Comber as part of the investigation.
Detective Chief Inspector John McVea said: "I appeal to anyone who was in or around the Church Gate Studios late last night or earlier this morning and heard a disturbance or noted any suspicious activity to contact detectives at Newtownards 101."

The Conservatives have said they will take family homes out of inheritance tax by introducing a new allowance which effectively increases the threshold for tax to £1m.
David Cameron said that if his party wins the 7 May election, parents will be offered a new £175,000 allowance to enable them to pass property on to children tax-free after they die.
For properties worth more than £2m, the allowance will be gradually tapered away so that those worth more than £2.35m do not benefit.

Inheritance tax is currently payable at a rate of 40% on the value of an estate above the £325,000 threshold - or £650,000 if a couple takes advantage of the existing allowance.

It is thought around 22,000 families will benefit from the move by 2020 and Mr Cameron said the costs would be paid for by a £1bn raid on pension tax relief for people earning more than £150,000.
Mr Cameron said: "We will take the family home out of inheritance tax.
"That home that you have worked and saved for belongs to you and your family.
"You should be able to pass it on to your children. And with the Conservatives, the taxman will not get his hands on it."
The Conservatives promised a £1m inheritance tax threshold in the 2010 election, but were blocked by Liberal Democrats from implementing it when in coalition.

Shadow home secretary Yvette Cooper told Sky's Murnaghan programme it is the "wrong priority" and "won't affect 90% of estates".
She said: "They are talking about a £140,000 tax cut for properties that are worth around £2m at a time when you've got families still losing their homes because of the bedroom tax, at a time when pensioners and families have had to pay more VAT."
The Institute For Fiscal Studies said the change would "disproportionately" benefit those on higher incomes.
In an observation published on its website after the announcement, the IFS said: "Since the children of those with very large estates are disproportionately towards the top of the income distribution the gains from this (and in fact any) IHT cut will also go disproportionately to those towards the top of the income distribution."
Meanwhile, Labour has revealed its plans to crackdown on tax-dodgers if it wins the election, hoping to cut avoidance and evasion by at least £7.5bn a year by the middle of the next Parliament.
Video:Lib Dems Will 'Spread Burden'
Shadow chancellor Ed Balls said it would take a Labour government to "call time" on the Tories' "lax approach", adding that Labour would set targets for HMRC to reduce tax avoidance by at least £7.5bn a year.
He said: "We will close the loopholes the Tories won't act on, increase transparency, toughen up penalties and abolish the non-dom rules.
"And our first Budget will make sure that, following an immediate review of HMRC, it has all the powers and resources it needs to come down hard on tax avoidance and evasion."
Conservative Treasury minister David Gauke said: "Ed Miliband and Ed Balls turned a blind eye to aggressive tax avoiding and evading for 13 years when they were in charge - they were the tax avoiders' friends."
The Lib Dems have also set out their tax plans, promising "light at the end of the tunnel" with moves to eliminate Britain's deficit by 2017/18.
Video:The Faisal Files: Day 13
Nick Clegg said his plan has "a heart as well as a brain", trying to drive home his claim that his party will cut less than the Conservatives and borrow less than Labour.
Spelling out plans for a consolidation totaling £27bn by 2017/18, made up of £12bn in additional tax, £12bn in public spending reductions and £3bn in welfare cuts, Mr Clegg challenged the other parties to spell out in similar detail how they would balance the nation's books.
He said: "We are going to spread the burden of finishing the job of fixing the economy fairly across society.
"Yes that means more cuts, but it also means asking the wealthiest to pay their fare share too."

Being Alex Salmond. More than anything else, it's what has made him the bookies' favourite to take the Gordon constituency.
Salmond's opponents, too, acknowledge that the recognition factor puts momentum behind Scotland's former First Minister.
Sure, there has been an SNP surge Scotland-wide but this Aberdeenshire constituency has been impenetrable Liberal Democrat territory since it was created in 1983.
The Salmond factor will be key in carrying him over the line if the SNP is, indeed, to win here.
It is a prosperous part of Scotland, stretching north from Aberdeen.

Up the coast, I stood on the 18th tee of Trump International Golf Course, where the 360 degree view takes in the wealth generators: farmland, business in the city of Aberdeen and, at sea, the supply vessels of the North Sea Gas industry that's brought big money in with the tide.
Alex Salmond's biggest threat here is the tactical vote.
The people of Gordon voted two-to-one against Scottish independence in last September's referendum.
They listen, like everyone else, to the mood music of an SNP campaign that increasingly sounds like the party will push for 'Indyref 2' as soon as it thinks it'll win it.
In this corner of Aberdeenshire, the notion doesn't necessarily sit well with the majority, and has given birth to the Stop Salmond vote.
Video:Salmond To Stand For Wesminster
Liberal Democrat candidate Christine Jardine told Sky News she is benefiting from pro-Union opinion that's steering voters towards her, whatever their party of first-choice.
She says: "People are telling me on the doorsteps that they haven't voted Liberal Democrat before but they will this time because they feel it's a straight two-horse race between me and Alex Salmond."
There is another main contender in the fight for the Stop Salmond vote, however: Conservative candidate Colin Clark, who told Sky News: "Gordon is a constituency which is a conservative with a small c and Alex Salmond is a socialist with a large s.
"This is really alien territory for him - it's not a constituency of grievance, it's a constituency of hard work."
Labour candidate Braden Davy said: "He is the establishment for people my age in Scotland. I'm not keen on his record: he seems to put his main campaign as division, the dividing of the UK."
There's no doubt that Mr Salmond would be a prominent member of an SNP group at Westminster post-election, perhaps sitting on Nicola Sturgeon's shoulder as she lays down her demands of an Ed Miliband minority administration.
Video:Salmond's Career And Legacy
He told Sky News: "The agenda of the team in Westminster is to move away from austerity, is to get a better deal for Scotland, is to identify progressive politics that can be pursued across these islands."
There is much to the election battle in Gordon and a lot of it extends beyond the constituency boundary.
If Mr Salmond wins the seat, it will give him the platform to work towards his party's ambitions - Scottish independence chief among them.
The question at this election isn't just: what can he do for Gordon... but what can Gordon do for him.

A passenger plane pulled out of a terrifying nosedive with just seven seconds to spare after being hit by lightning in Scotland, says an air accident report.
The Loganair flight, carrying 30 passengers and three crew members, was moments away from crashing into the North Sea before the pilot wrested back control.
The island-hopping Saab 2000 was flying from Aberdeen to Sumburgh Airport, Shetland, when it hit a snow storm with 70mph winds, an interim report by the Air Accident Investigation Branch (AAIB) said.
The 42-year-old pilot decided to abort his approach when he was seven miles away, and the plane was then struck by lightning which travelled from the nose to the tail of the aircraft.
He and the co-pilot wrongly believed the autopilot system had disengaged and struggled to regain control of the plane as it plunged at high speed.
As the co-pilot declared a mayday, the pilot kept trying to gain height - but every move was countered by the autopilot.
When it fell to 4,000ft, the plane suddenly pitched nose down and started falling at 158ft per second.
At 1,100ft - giving the crew just seven seconds to act before the plane crashed into the waves - 'pull-up' alarms sounded, the captain applied full power and the aircraft finally started to climb.
The plane landed safely in Aberdeen, with only minor damage.
No passengers were injured, but many were left shaken by the incident, which took place on the night of 14 December.
Passenger Shona Manson told the Daily Telegraph: "It was really, really bumpy. If it was someone who's a bad flyer, it'd be their worst nightmare.
"We were on descent and I said to my partner, we're going back up again, and just as we started to go up again there was an almighty bang and a flash that went over the left wing.
"Then we were really ascending, and at that point there were a few folk looking around going 'Oh my God, what's happening?' The poor guy across the aisle from me just had eyes like rabbits in headlights."
The report said the crew may have thought the lighting strike had disabled the autopilot because other controls had stopped working.
But it was still functioning and trying to descend to its instructed level for the landing.
The AAIB report said: "Although the pilots' actions suggested that they were under the impression the autopilot had disengaged at the moment of the lightning strike, recorded data showed that it had remained engaged."
It said it had not identified any technical malfunction which might account for the incident, and the investigation is continuing, looking at crew training, autopilot design, and any "human factors".
Police have released CCTV pictures of a van and three suspects wanted in connection with the Hatton Garden jewel heist.
Scotland Yard described the men as "highly audacious" and said they entered the building in London's jewellery quarter twice over Easter.
The images were released after footage reportedly showing the gang raiding the safety deposit boxes was published by the Daily Mirror.
A view through a grated gate at the Hatton Garden Safe Deposit company
The 17-minute video purportedly shows at least six men arriving at the Hatton Garden Safe Deposit company's building on Good Friday.
The Daily Mirror, which obtained the footage, reported that the group made two separate visits before leaving in a white van on Easter Sunday with the contents of 72 safety deposit boxes in wheelie bins and bags.
Video:Given Grade Which Meant No Action
Scotland Yard is examining the footage, and has insisted it was already aware of the video before it was published by the newspaper.
The spokesman added the force had "not made any links" between the heist and an underground fire in the Holborn area which caused widespread power outages and road closures.
Detective chief inspector Paul Johnson said the images released on Saturday showed the suspects accessed the premises using a side door.
He said: "They were highly audacious entering on two occasions over that weekend, firstly on Thursday, 2 April at 20.19 before leaving the following morning at approximately 08.12.
"They then returned over a day later on Saturday, 4 April at approximately 22.17 before leaving the following morning at approximately 06.44.
Video:Ex-Detective On Jewel Heist
"This footage, along with other material, was already recovered by police at the earliest opportunity, and continues to be evaluated to capture the precise movements of the suspects."
DCI Johnson said officers were continuing to collect CCTV from the area where the raid took place, and appealed for nearby businesses and anyone else in possession of footage to make contact.
Police are also continuing to investigate why a call from a security firm about the alarm was graded in a way that meant officers did not consider it worthy of a response.
It was not until Tuesday morning that the raid - one of Britain's biggest - was discovered.
The Daily Mirror footage is from a camera that centres on a doorway, with an adjacent intercom, at the bottom of a set of stairs that leads to the street.
Video:Jewel Heist Drilling Explained
A number of men appear wearing high-visibility jackets, hard hats, gloves and dust masks, and carrying orange tool boxes and holdalls.
Others in the group are dressed in blue overalls and gloves.
Three men with their faces covered are seen taking wheelie bins in and out of the building.
A white van is seen pulling up shortly before 7am on Sunday, the newspaper reported, and once the bins and bags are loaded into it, the group get in and drive away.
Police have insisted it is too early to say if the handling of the call about the alert would have had an impact on the outcome.
Video:Raid: How Thieves Gained Entry
But the revelations have led to anger from potential victims, who spoke of their shock that the police "just weren't there".
The police could face compensation claims running into millions because officers failed to respond to the alarm, it has also been claimed.
With property prices rising and many young people still finding it hard to get a mortgage, more and more would-be homeowners across Britain are turning to one of the oldest methods of building.
Cob building involves using earth, sand, straw and clay as the raw materials for walls. It's estimated that a three-bed cob home would cost in the region of £25,000 to build.
All that's needed is a plot of land and planning permission - and the right knowledge.
Charlotte Eve runs classes on how to build cob homes from her Norfolk base and says that hundreds of people are signing up to learn the skills needed for their own projects.
Natural, cheap materials are used in DIY cob building
"You can't get more sustainable than a cob home," she told Sky News.
"You dig your foundations on site and you use the clay from that foundation trench to make your walls. It's very environmentally friendly and it's also cheap - cheap in terms of construction costs and also in terms of heating the finished home.
Video:Archive: House Building In Crisis
"Your costs for the project are extremely low."
Self building accounts for only 10% of the UK market. That's despite lower costs - £150,000 for the average project, which is £80,000 less than a ready-made home.
Tony Tkaczuk from Lancashire is working on an upgrade of his cob cottage and says he'd recommend a self-build to anyone.

"It's very fulfilling actually, you have done it yourself and that's a great feeling," Tony told Sky News.
"You can work together as a team, like my wife and I do. And at the end it's wonderful to think to yourselves 'yes, we did that'."
At the Building Research Establishment (BRE) in Watford, experts monitor construction trends across the UK each year. They point out that around 11,000 projects in Britain last year were self-builds.
Video:Experts Debate The Generation Gap
"There's a lot of time, energy and emotion required," said BRE's chief executive, Dr Peter Bonfield. "There are a lot of benefits to self-builds, you can feel really proud of what you have achieved.
"There are also a lot of professional companies out there doing this kind of thing day in and day out. So it's a choice really, a big decision for people."
The Government hopes self-built properties could help combat a housing shortfall of 750,000 homes across the UK by 2025.
Police are investigating after a video emerged appearing to show a Grand National racegoer deliberately knocking over an elderly man.
The video is believed to have been made outside the racecourse in Aintree where around 150,000 people attended the event.
In the footage, a racegoer walks along the pavement before knocking into the victim, who then falls to the ground.
Onlookers are heard gasping and seen rushing to the pensioner's aid before an ambulance is called.
The video appears to have been made by a friend of the racegoer and he shouts "text bomb" and "is there any need?" just moments before the incident, as he sniggers from behind his phone.
A Merseyside Police spokesman said officers are treating the incident as an assault and appealed for help in finding the victim.
"Merseyside Police has been made aware of a video showing a man shoulder-barging another, older man, over in a road near to the Aintree racecourse," he said.
"The incident is being treated as assault and officers are speaking to several people believed to have further information that could help the investigation.
"Inquiries are also being carried out to establish exactly when and where the incident occurred and checks are being made with local hospitals to see if further information can be found out about the victim and what his condition is now.
"We are grateful to the people who reported this video to us and we will endeavour to update them once further enquiries by officers have been made. "We would continue to welcome any information from anyone who witnessed the incident itself on 101. "
Earlier, police said the annual race had seen no arrests over its three-day course, thanking the public for making the event such a "safe and enjoyable occasion".
A warning has been issued to those booking holidays online, as it is revealed that British holidaymakers were conned out of £2.2m last year.
Criminal groups have targeted online booking firms to steal cash from unsuspecting customers and many only find out they have been conned when they arrive at their hotel and find no record of their booking.
A report from the National Fraud Intelligence Bureau found that in one case a holidaymaker lost £62,000 in a fraud relating to a dodgy timeshare scheme.
But losses are not just financial, with a third of victims saying the fraud has a substantial impact on their health as well as their finances and 167 victims said the impact of the crime was so severe they needed medical treatment.
The scams see a spike in the summer months and in December, which mean that many ruined trips will be for those trying to visit loved ones for Christmas.
The report shows that, during a 12-month period, 1,569 cases of holiday booking fraud were reported to the police action fraud team, with most relating to plane tickets, hacking accounts, posting fake adverts online and setting up bogus websites.
Sports and religious trips were an attractive target because of limited availability and higher prices and the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow and World Cup in Brazil were also targeted, with many people paying for fake tickets or accommodation.
Those aged between 30 and 49 were most often targeted and most victims were defrauded by methods such as bank transfers or cash with no means of getting their money back. Only a small number paid by credit or debit card where some form of redress is available.
Mark Tanzer, ABTA chief executive, said: "Holiday fraud is a particularly distressing form of fraud as the loss to the victim is not just financial but it can also have a high emotional impact.
"Many victims are unable to get away on a long-awaited holiday or visit to loved ones and the financial loss is accompanied by a personal loss.
"We would also encourage anyone who has been the victim of a travel-related fraud to report it so that the police can build up a case, catch the perpetrators and prevent other unsuspecting people from falling victim."
Detective chief superintendent Dave Clark, the City of London Police head of economic crime, said: "Online shoppers must be vigilant and conduct all the necessary checks before booking a break to ensure the conmen are kept at bay."
A British boy who died in a skiing accident while on a family holiday in the French Alps was skiing alone at his own request, according to reports.
The seven-year-old, who has been named in reports as Carwyn Scott-Howell from Talybont-on-Usk in Powys, fell around 160ft from a cliff to his death in the alpine resort of Flaine on Friday.
He had been skiing with his mother, brother and sister but is understood to have asked to ski the day's final descent on his own.
His family became worried after he failed to reach the bottom of the slopes, prompting a search which ended when his body was discovered around three-and-a-half hours later.

The circumstances around the incident are still being investigated by the authorities, with some reports suggesting the boy was instead somehow separated from his family.
There have been reports that the boy was not skiing on his own, and had instead gotten lost from the group he was with.
Michel Ollagnon, an officer with the Bonneville mountain rescue service, said the boy's body was spotted off his expected course by rescuers in a helicopter on Friday evening.
Police chief Patrick Poirot, the head of the mountain rescue division in the nearby town of Annecy, was quoted in the Daily Mirror saying: "Specialists are at the scene to try and determine exactly what happened and understand every element that led to this tragedy.
The alpine resort of Flaine, in France
"Hypothetically we think that, after losing his parents, the little boy didn't know where to go and skied in the wrong direction.
"He's just seven-years-old.
"He left the marked ski slope and probably skied to the top of a cliff.
"He then stopped, removed his skis, walked a little way and then fell.
"He fell 50 metres."
A Foreign Office spokeswoman said they were aware of the death and are providing consular assistance.
One of nine Britons held in Turkey on suspicion of trying to illegally enter Syria is on his way home after being deported.
Waheed Ahmed - the son of Rochdale councillor Shakil Ahmed - will fly from Dalaman into Manchester on Sunday night, according to Sky sources.
The remaining eight will return on Tuesday, it is understood.

All of the group are from the same family.
Mr Ahmed, 21, was with his aunt, two cousins and one of their wives when they were stopped in Turkey, near the Syrian border. They had four children with them.
Video:Reaction To 'Syria-Bound' Britons
Most of the group flew from Manchester on 27 March but Mr Ahmed joined them three days later on a flight from Birmingham.
There were reportedly concerns about his behaviour in the months before he was arrested.
Mohammed Shafiq, who is a friend of Shakil Ahmed, said of Waheed: "There were concerns in the last six months to a year about a change in his behaviour.
"And a change in his attitude towards various different issues."
He also told Sky News: "That was causing concern for people in the community and his family."
Other family members detained include Zareeda Bi, 47, Maboob Yasin, 22, Habib Yasin, 24, Samia Bi, 22, and youngsters aged one, three, eight and 11.
Police are trying to establish their reason for travelling to the Syrian border.
Officers have searched at least five homes in the Manchester area, including that of the Labour councillor.
A 1980s-style housing "revolution" doubling the number of first-time buyers by 2020 has been pledged by the Tories, if they are elected.
The plan would mean half a million people a year getting their feet on the housing ladder, George Osborne said.
Labour claims Britain's chronic housing shortage is being fuelled by coalition schemes such as Help to Buy and no action is being taken to boost supply.
Ed Miliband's party unveiled plans on Saturday to take the new ISA scheme for first-time buyers announced in the Budget and use it to finance wide-scale house building.
Speaking on Sky News' Murnaghan programme, Mr Osborne said: "We do need to build more homes. We need to make sure all those brownfields in our cities and towns are being used for that purpose."
Video:Archive: House Building In Crisis
And he pointed to government help being provided to assist people onto the housing ladder, including the new ISA where savings are topped up for a deposit.
Mr Osborne also revealed more than 50,000 people had registered for a scheme offering cut-price homes for first-time buyers.
And a future Tory government would extend the existing Help to Buy scheme in England, which helps those struggling to raise a deposit.
He said: "I am a great believer in a home owning nation, a home owning democracy where families can get on the housing ladder."
Mr Osborne has said as many as one million people would enjoy direct government help to purchase properties over the next parliament.
"I think we can deliver a revolution in home ownership," the Chancellor said.

"In the next parliament I would like to see over a million more people helped into home ownership by a Conservative government.
Video:28 Feb: Boost For First-Time Buyers
"I would like to see us double the number of first-time buyers up to half a million. That is the kind of level we saw in the 1980s.
"There is no reason why our country can't achieve that again."
Since 2010 there have been 1.2 million first-time purchases and Mr Osborne wants at least 2.4 million more over the next five years
Shadow housing minister Emma Reynolds said: "More warm words on housing from the Chancellor will be cold comfort to the record number of young people and families priced out of home ownership over the past five years.
"Under this Tory-led government we've seen the lowest levels of housebuilding in peacetime since the 1920s and home ownership has fallen to a 30-year low.

"Labour's Better Plan will ensure Britain builds the homes working people need.
"Labour will get at least 200,000 homes built a year by 2020, backed by a comprehensive plan - the first in a generation - and a £5bn Future Homes Fund to support the building of homes for first-time buyers."

The Tory pledge came as a YouGov poll for the Sunday Times showed the party overtaking Labour to move into a one point lead by 34% to 33%.
But Opinium research for The Observer had the Conservatives down one point on 33%, level-pegging with Labour (unchanged), while UKIP was up one point on 14%.
Liberal Democrats were down one on 7%, Greens were unchanged on 7% and the Scottish National Party were up one on 4%.
In a dramatic development on Saturday, an inquiry was ordered into the leak of a UK Government account of a private meeting between SNP leader Nicola Sturgeon and the French ambassador.
The Daily Telegraph published the diplomatic memo which suggested she had indicated that she would prefer to see Conservatives remain in power after the 7 May General Election.
Ms Sturgeon complained of a "dirty tricks" attempt to halt the party's advance.
She said it was "100% untrue" that she had expressed such a preference - a denial backed by French diplomats at the meeting.
But the memo was seized on by Labour leader Ed Miliband as a "damning revelation" of the SNP leader's true views.
James Bond star Daniel Craig has had knee surgery after sustaining an injury while filming action scenes for the latest instalment of the spy series.
Craig had what was described by Eon Productions as a "minor procedure" during the Easter filming break.
The 47-year-old was filming in Mexico before he returned to New York last weekend, when the surgery is believed to have taken place.
A spokeswoman for Eon Productions denied reports Craig had been forced to miss several days of filming for Spectre, which will be released on 6 November.
It will be the actor's fourth outing as Bond.

The spokeswoman said: "During a scheduled break, Daniel Craig had arthroscopic surgery to repair his knee injury.
"He will rejoin production on 22 April at Pinewood."
Bond's past looks set to haunt him in the latest film, with 007 receiving a cryptic message leading him on a trail to find out the truth behind a shady crime syndicate called Spectre.

The wreckage of a light aircraft which went missing in western Scotland has been found by search teams, police say.
The remains of two people who were on board the plane have also been discovered.
The wreckage was found in the Glen Kinglass area of Argyll at about 8pm on Saturday after radar contact was lost at around 1.50pm.
Police, the ambulance service and the coastguard had all been involved in the "extensive" search for the aircraft.
The police said in a statement: "Police Scotland can confirm that following an extensive multi-agency search, the wreckage of a light aircraft was discovered on the northern aspect of the Glen Kinglass area of Argyll at around 8pm.
"Sadly, the remains of the two people on board have also been discovered.
"Around 1.50pm on Saturday 4 April 2015, emergency services received a report of a light aircraft having lost contact in the Bein Nan Lus area of Argyll."
Chief Inspector Fergus Byrne said: "Police Scotland has been working with partner agencies throughout the day to locate the aircraft and our thoughts are with the families of the victims.
"Enquiries are continuing to establish the exact circumstances and a report will be submitted to the Procurator Fiscal.
"Anyone with information regarding this incident is urged to contact police via the non-emergency number 101."
Scottish National Party leader Nicola Sturgeon has offered Ed Miliband a new deal to help him take power and "lock David Cameron out of Downing Street".
Writing in the Observer, Ms Sturgeon challenged him to take his party into an anti-austerity alliance with the SNP - despite Mr Miliband ruling out any formal coalition.
Her words come a day after claims – strenuously denied by the SNP leader – that she had told the French ambassador she wanted Mr Cameron to stay as prime minister.

According to a leaked memo about the February meeting, she allegedly said Mr Miliband was not "prime minister material".

But Ms Sturgeon has reinforced her earlier offer to the Labour leader, telling him: "If together our parties have the parliamentary numbers required after 7 May, and regardless of which is the biggest party, will he and Labour join with us in locking David Cameron out of Downing Street?"
The SNP leader also uses the article to repeat denials that the memo claims are "100% untrue – having been comprehensively rejected by both the French ambassador and consul general".
A coalition government seems a likely result after next month's election, with the result seemingly on a knife-edge and no one party looking like getting an overall majority.
The Conservatives have seized on the prospect of a Labour-SNP coalition with posters showing Mr Miliband in the pocket of Ms Sturgeon.

The Labour leader has insisted "there will be no SNP ministers in any government I lead" - but crucially has not vetoed a looser arrangement that would see the party offering voting support to shore up Labour.
The SNP is glowing from a big boost in popularity in the wake of last year's independence referendum and - ironically - is expected to rob Labour of many of its Scottish MPs.
Ms Sturgeon was also seen by many as the best performer in the leaders' TV debate.
With just over four weeks to go, latest opinion polls put the Tories and Labour virtually level-pegging.

Police are hunting for a driver who left a 93-year-old woman lying in the middle of the road after a hit-and-run crash.
They have issued a CCTV image of the silver Chrysler Voyager thought to have struck Isobel Rawes in Shirley, West Midlands.
The pensioner is still in hospital being treated for the serious injuries she suffered.
Police said she was hit as she crossed Stratford Road at around 11.50am on 24 March.
A spokeswoman said: "The driver failed to stop at the scene and left the victim lying in the carriageway before driving away in the direction of the M42.
Police believe this car hit the 93-year-old
"Following extensive CCTV inquiries, police have identified the car as a silver-coloured Chrysler Voyager.
"It is believed that the vehicle will have damage to the front passenger side."
Sergeant Adam Green, from the Regional Collision Investigation Unit, said: "I would urge anyone that has seen a Chrysler Voyager with damage to the front passenger side to come forward.
"It may be that the driver has confided in a friend or family member or a neighbour has noticed recent damage.
"It is important that we speak to the driver in order to understand the reasons for the collision and the subsequent driving away from the scene to provide answers to the family of Mrs Rawes."

Chancellor George Osborne has repeatedly refused to rule out a tax cut for Britain's highest earners if the Conservatives win the election.
Mr Osborne told Sky News' Murnaghan programme his party had "no plans" to further reduce the top rate of tax and insisted it was not a priority.
Prime Minister David Cameron also said: "It's not our policy, it's not our plan."
But Labour claim the Chancellor has been "flushed out", pointing out Mr Osborne had used the same words about VAT before the last election, which he then raised from 17.5% to 20%.

The opposition has promised to bring back the 50p rate for those earning upwards of £150,000, claiming the cut to 45p had benefited the wealthiest by at least £85,000.
Pressed on whether top earners could be in line for another tax cut, Mr Osborne said: "You can judge us by what we say we want to do.
"And what we want to do is increase the tax-free personal allowance to £12,500 so people full-time on the minimum wage don't have to pay income tax and millions are better off.
"And when it comes to higher rate taxpayers our priority is increasing the threshold at which you pay that higher rate, the 40p rate, to £50,000.
"Those are our big tax commitments for the coming parliament."
Tackled repeatedly over whether the top rate could be cut further, Mr Osborne said: "If that was our priority or our plan we would have made it part of our plan and made it one of our priorities.
"I am telling you what our priority is. We have made a big tax-cutting priority and that's what we are absolutely 100% focused on delivering and achieving.
"Not because it's a nice thing to have but because its central to our economic plan and making work pay."
But Labour's Chris Leslie told Murnaghan this was the same argument previously used by Mr Osborne on VAT, which he had then increased in office.
Mr Leslie said: "That's the same formula he had before the last General Election when he said we have no plans on VAT and of course they did it.
"Their priority is always about helping the very richest in society."

But Mr Leslie's reference to "fairer tax changes" in tackling the deficit has caused critics to claim Labour is planning more tax rises.
The clash over tax is just the latest between the two main parties as the General Election campaign gets into full swing.
In recent weeks, Mr Cameron ruled out an increase in VAT while Labour committed not to increase National Insurance in the face of attacks by the respective sides.
Speaking on Murnaghan, Mr Osborne also warned "an unholy alliance" between the Labour and the SNP after the election would risk the future of the UK and its economy.
The party's leader Nicola Sturgeon has offered to help Ed Miliband "lock David Cameron out of Downing Street" as she sought to bat away disputed claims she had told the French ambassador she would prefer a Tory win in May.
Mr Osborne said: "The fact that the Labour Party, that was a party that campaigned for the Union in the referendum, is contemplating an arrangement with the SNP, who want to break up the country, is deeply disturbing.
"People know that Ed Miliband is weak, that the Scottish nationalist leaders are much stronger than he is and we know who would be running that government.
"That would be bad for the entire United Kingdom, bad for the integrity of the Union but also bad for our economy because it would mean higher debts and higher taxes."
But Mr Leslie said Labour had ruled out a coalition with the Scottish nationalists.
"The SNP and the Conservatives, I think, are playing political games with the country's future," he said.
David Cameron's wife Samantha has told how the couple's struggle to cope with their disabled son brought them to "breaking point".
Mrs Cameron said the couple were physically and mentally "shattered" by the strain of looking after Ivan - who died aged six in 2009.
She spoke of their struggle during an interview with the Mail On Sunday's You magazine, where she also made the case for voters sending her husband back to Number 10.
Mrs Cameron revealed that the couple's Christian faith had helped them cope with their son's illness and death.

She said Ivan, who had cerebral palsy and suffered from severe epileptic fits, had made their love stronger and brought them immense joy.
"There's lots of people in our situation whose marriages don't survive," she told the magazine.
"Looking after a disabled child pushes you to the limits of what you can cope with physically, emotionally.
"By the end of the first year we were totally shattered and pretty much at breaking point.
"The doctors realised we needed help. But as parents you have this feeling that you shouldn't ask for help.
"We could have been angry with God, but we felt he'd given Ivan to us to look after, and we had to do the best job that we could.
"He was very beautiful, one of the great gifts in our lives."

Making a case for giving her husband another five years in Downing Street, she said the PM's biggest fear was "letting people down".
She suggested he was the best man for the job of running the country because he was "even-tempered, clear-headed, and not scared of making hard decisions".
The interview is the latest in a series of interventions by the spouses of party leaders in the run-up to the election.
Mrs Cameron also gave an insight into some more unusual aspects of life as the UK's "first lady".
These included being forced to leave dinner with Angela Merkel to break up a "huge pillow and duvet fight" between her children at the German chancellor's country residence.
The Prime Minister, in a separate interview with the Sunday Times, put the couple's ability not to fall apart entirely down to his wife's fortitude.
He said his marriage was "easily the best thing that's happened in my life" and said he loved his wife "as much today as when I first met her; more, much more".
He added: "I'm very blessed to have her. She is amazing."
A 14-year-old boy and 16-year-old girl have been arrested on suspicion of planning acts of terrorism.
The boy was held after officers from the North West Counter-Terrorism Unit and Lancashire Constabulary executed a warrant at a home in Blackburn, Lancashire, on Thursday.
Police examined a number of electronic devices found on the premises.
They suspect the boy of "preparing for an act of terrorism under Section 5 of the Terrorism Act 2006".
The girl was arrested after police raided a house in Clee Avenue, Longsight, Manchester, the following night.
She is suspected of "engaging in conduct in preparation for acts of terrorism".
Both youngsters have been bailed until 28 May.
An eyewitness told the Manchester Evening News that Clee Avenue was "full of terrorist police" when the girl was arrested at around 8pm on Friday.
The ongoing investigation is not thought to be related to the Rochdale family detained in Turkey for allegedly trying to cross into Syria.
The five adults and four children were arrested on Wednesday and are due to be deported back to Britain later.
Police have searched three properties in Rochdale and two in Heywood as part of the inquiry.

A man has been arrested over the alleged abduction of a six-year-old girl who went missing in Burnley.
The youngster was taken by a man, possibly in a large dark-coloured car, from Nairne Street in the Lancashire town at about 4pm on Thursday.
She was dropped off three miles away in Whitefield Street, Hapton, where she was found.
After she was returned home, police were called. It is thought she was with the man for around 20 minutes.
Police put out an appeal and launched a manhunt in a bid to find the man who took the girl.
A 33-year-old man from Accrington has now been arrested on suspicion of child abduction and is in custody
Officers are continuing to appeal for information about the incident.
Detective Chief Inspector Joanne McHugh said: "We need anyone who may have witnessed a black coloured car in the Nairne Street or Whitefield Street areas around the time of the abduction to contact us.
"Similarly, if anyone knows anything about this incident at all, please call us on 101."
Alternatively, people can contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 or online at Crimestoppers-uk.org.
Two murderers who married in Britain's first gay prison marriage have been banned from sharing a cell.
Paedophile Mikhail Gallatinov, 40, and Marc Goodwin, 31, who is serving life for a homophobic murder, wed at the maximum security Full Sutton prison, near York.
A Prison Service spokesman said the taxpayer did not pay for the 15-minute service at Full Sutton, where both men are serving their time.
"We are very clear that if prisoners do get married, the taxpayer does not foot the bill for the ceremony and they are certainly not allowed to share a cell," he said.
Four of their relatives attended the 15-minute ceremony, which the inmates wore suits for.
Gallatinov's father told Manchester Evening News that even though his son has violent past, he still deserves happiness.
Allen Abdulla, from Hull, said: "If you find love you have to go for it - even if it is in prison.
"Everyone deserves to be happy."
Gallatinov was sentenced to life with a minimum of 20 years after being convicted of murdering Adrian Kaminsky, 28, in Manchester in 1997.
The court heard Gallatinov, a convicted paedophile, was under surveillance by undercover police when he strangled Mr Kaminsky.
Judge Rhys Davies QC said at the time: "This was a cold-blooded, well-planned, callous, chilling and apparently motiveless killing."
Gallatinov's new husband, Goodwin, was handed a life sentence in 2007 for the gay-hate killing of Malcolm Benfold, 57, on the Blackpool seafront.
Goodwin, of Airdrie, Lanarkshire, was 23 at the time and was told he must serve a minimum of 18 years before being considered for parole.
After Goodwin was convicted, police described the killing as "a savage, senseless homophobic attack that resulted in the death of a harmless man".
Labour has taken a four-point lead in the first major poll since the TV battle between Ed Miliband and David Cameron.
The YouGov survey for the Sunday Times put Labour on 36%, ahead of the Tories on 32%. UKIP sits on 13%, the Liberal Democrats on 8% and "others" on 11%.
The snap polls immediately after Thursday's Battle For Number 10 programme had David Cameron as the winner, but this latest study conducted over two days suggests Mr Miliband is the one enjoying a post-show bounce.
Of those who saw the TV programme shown on Sky News and Channel 4, 49% thought Mr Miliband came across best to Mr Cameron's 34%. Asked which leader was most honest and clear in their answers Mr Miliband stayed on 49%, but Mr Cameron dropped to 28%.
There was muted response from both sides on Saturday night.
Video:Tory Election Campaign Begins
Speaking to Sky's Murnaghan programme, the vice-chairwoman of Labour's campaign, Lucy Powell, said: "Polls go up and down, so we don't get disheartened when they go down and we don't get buoyed when they go up."
The Prime Minister's spokesman said polls were "all over the place", pointing out that the latest Opinium study had them leading.
Mr Miliband's spokesman said: "Polls will move up and down during the campaign but we welcome the opportunity to make our case directly to the public."
Video:Battle For Number 10 Special
The study would see a 6% swing to Labour, which could get them close to a majority. But it's still apparent that the SNP vote would eat into it, leaving no clear winner.
Mr Cameron made a direct attack on Mr Miliband in a speech on Saturday, saying the Labour leader didn't have what it takes to be Prime Minister.
But, as the short campaign kicks off on Monday with the dissolution of Parliament, it is all still in the balance as to which of them will be able to form the next government come 8 May.

Video:Co-Pilot's Motives 'Not Relevant'
The father of a British man who died on Germanwings flight 4U9525 has said the co-pilot's motive for crashing the plane is "not relevant".
Philip Bramley, whose 27-year-old son Paul was among 150 people who died in the French Alps tragedy, said his focus was on seeing that "this never happens again".
Mr Bramley said: "What happened on the morning of 24 March was the act of a person who at the very least was ill.
"If there was a motive or reason we don't want to hear it, it's not relevant.
"What is relevant is this should never happen again. My son and everyone on that plane should not be forgotten ever."

German media has reported that co-pilot Andreas Lubitz received treatment for a "serious depressive episode" six years ago during his training. He also allegedly received treatment for an eye condition, according to the New York Times.
French investigators have said his mental health is a "serious lead" in the inquiry - but not the only one.
Meanwhile, an ex-lover of Lubitz revealed to German newspaper Bild that he told her last year: "One day I will do something that will change the whole system, and then all will know my name and remember it."

Hundreds of people attended a memorial service on Saturday morning at Digne-les-Bains, near where searchers are still looking for bodies and evidence.
The tragedy, which occurred after the pilot was locked out of the cockpit, has prompted a review of safety procedures by airlines.

A crime museum has opened with a graphic exhibition of the horrific crimes of the Islamic State terror group.
The display includes many before and after images of the beheading of hostages in Syria and Iraq.
A senior MP condemned the exhibition and said it would cause anguish to victims' families.
The exhibition was installed this week in the private crime museum at the former jail at Littledean in the Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire.
Andy Jones says his crime museum should not be a pleasant place to visit
Owner Andy Jones said: "I'm sure I will be criticised for showing such graphic images, but people have a right to see the true horror of what Islamic State is doing.
"It's especially important we don't sanitise it, because the Government and the police keep warning us that these atrocities are very likely to be committed on the streets of the UK."
The museum has a reputation for extreme exhibits and has grim displays on the Holocaust and the racist murders of the Ku Klux Klan in the US.
A flyer for the museum describes it as "the UK's most infamous and politically incorrect black museum".
Senior Labour MP Keith Vaz said: "This is grotesque and I urge the owner not to open the exhibition. It should be looked at by the authorities and the owner should should think again and save himself and the relatives of those who have been the victims of ISIS (IS) the anguish that this will cause."
One of the warning signs about the content of the exhibition
There are many warning signs outside the 18th Century building which has been a jail, a court and a police station before Mr Jones bought it and opened it as a museum, charging £8 for adults and £6 for children.
One notice reads: "Be warned, if easily offended or of a sensitive nature please don't come in. No refunds available."
Another warns visitors: "Do not expect this establishment to be a pleasant one, as it is clearly not. We touch upon a great many taboo and disturbing subject matters such as graphic and explicit material."
Mr Jones said: "There are plenty of warnings and I don't expect people to bring children to see the more extreme exhibits. But this is a crime museum, so what do people expect to see in such an establishment."
As he put the final touches to the exhibition before its opening this weekend, he said a discreet TV screen would show videos of IS beheadings.
A potentially life-saving vaccine against meningitis B will soon be available to all babies in the UK after a long stand-off over the cost.
Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt said Britain would become the first country in the world with a nationwide meningitis B vaccination programme after the Government reached a deal with drug maker GlaxoSmithKline.
The Bexsero MenB vaccine, which was recommended by health experts a year ago, will now be added to the national childhood immunisation scheme, with babies getting the first of three jabs at two months.
Mr Hunt said: "MenB can be severely disabling or fatal, especially in babies and young children. Losing a child is every parent's worst nightmare so I am delighted that we have reached an agreement with GSK."
Discussions between the department and the drug company over the price of the vaccine began in August last year, following advice from the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI).
Video:Charities Welcome Meningitis Jab
The Department of Health will now work with GSK to secure supplies of the vaccine and bring it into the national immunisation programme, likely to be from September this year.
Leading meningitis charities have welcomed the deal, although they say they cannot understand why talks dragged on for so long.
Sue Davie, chief executive of Meningitis Now, said: "To know that babies will be protected against MenB is fantastic and another great step forward in our fight against meningitis.
Video:Meningitis Vaccination Delay
"Families for whom this comes too late, and for whom we will always be here to support, have campaigned tirelessly and selflessly with us to make sure no other families suffer as they have."
Chris Head, chief executive of Meningitis Research Foundation, said: "When this vaccine is introduced it will save lives and spare countless families the trauma of seeing a loved one die or become seriously disabled because of MenB."
GSK said the deal represented "fair value" for the health service.

UK general manager Nikki Yates said: "We are delighted to have concluded an agreement with the Government just three weeks after we acquired the vaccine, which offers fair value to the NHS and at the same time is sustainable for GSK."
