Skull may be murdered drug dealer’s

Gardaí were last night investigating the discovery of a human skull in Co Meath, with the remains thought to be those of convicted drug dealer Christopher Gaffney.

The 37-year-old, from Blanchardstown in west Dublin, went missing in October and some of his body parts were found in the townland of Mayne, Co Meath, early last month.

However, his head was still missing and gardaí had been carrying out searches of nearby areas when the discovery was made on Saturday.
