Months of heartbreak and searching for answers - now Peter Baglin's family have received the worst possible news

As the desperate search for missing great-grandad Peter Baglin neared the ten week mark, police made a horrific discovery. Human remains were uncovered and later confirmed to belong to Peter, who had gone out for a walk on December 28 and never returned.

It was the day that Peter's wife Michelle and family said they 'wished would never come'. After more than two months of clutching on to hope, holding on to a glimmer of light, they received the worst possible news. It was finally some closure and answers - but not ones they had ever wished to receive.

Peter, 55, went for a walk on the evening of December 28. He had bought a small bottle of whiskey from the Texaco Garage nearby, on the East Lancashire Road in Mosley Common. He was last seen on the CCTV cameras at the petrol station at 7.38pm.
