Body of missing man found in remote area

THE death of a man who had been the subject of a search in Co Cork over the past week is not believed to have been suspicious, gardaí said last night.

The body found in a remote part of west Cork yesterday afternoon was identified last night as that of Alan Lyons from Thurles, Co Tipperary.

The 25-year-old had been reported missing a week earlier, after going to visit friends in the area.
