The unthinkable murders committed by Ian Brady and Myra Hindley have yet again come into focus as police are digging the Moors in search of murder victim Keith Bennett, following the discovery of a skull that appears to match his description.
The young boy was snatched 58 years ago by the notorious killers and his body has never been found, causing untold pain for his family. However, fresh evidence has come to light as a skull believed to be of a child aged around 12 was found on Saddleworth Moor, prompting detectives to dig around the area.
Keith Bennett is the only victim of the Moors murders who has never been found as his heartless killers refused to disclose the location of his body. The latest development could help police crack the case that has been left unresolved for six decades.
