DNA tests on body could take weeks
The family of Danny McIlhone, who vanished from west Belfast in 1981, face an agonising wait for confirmation that it was his body discovered in remote bogland in the Wicklow mountains outside Dublin.
Investigators found a human foot, a boot and a sock on the side of Wicklow’s second highest peak, Mullaghcleevaun, near the village of Lacken on Saturday.
