The brother of Moors Murder victim Keith Bennett has said no human remains have been found so far by police in a new search. An excavation of a small plot on Saddleworth Moor commenced on Thursday night (September 29).
It was triggered after a team brought together by author Russell Edwards reportedly recovered part of a skull in a remote location. His team is said to have taken a photograph of part of a lower jaw and shown it to GMP.
On social media, Alan, 65, who has spent more than 30 years looking for his brother, expressed his scepticism about any breakthrough. He posted last night (Friday): "The forensic team will determine what is there once and for all, no matter how long it takes to excavate the area. Those are the facts so far.
