The Irish and British governments are looking at a number of candidates to appoint a forensic expert to help locate the bodies of people abducted, murdered and secretly buried by the IRA, Northern Ireland Secretary Peter Hain confirmed today.

A FRESH dig for the body of a teenager abducted and murdered by the IRA nearly three decades ago will begin today after a witness to the burial, who had not come forward before, decided to do so just over a month ago.
