VIDEO: Gardaí seek human remains lorry

Gardaí were last night trying to identify which bin lorry carried the remains of the human body that was found at a recycling plant late on Thursday night.

It is part of a wider investigation which is trying to identify the person and establish whether the person died accidentally or at the hands of another person.

Detectives hope that, if they can pinpoint which lorry was carrying the person, they can follow its route and gather any CCTV from the various locations from which it picked up waste. This could capture images of the person who somehow ended up in a large wheelie bin.
