Site-clearing intensifies in search for clues to disappearance of Trevor Deely

The task of removing dense undergrowth and vegetation is still ongoing but detectives are hopeful a sufficient area will be cleared to allow a detailed search to begin within days.

A forensic archaeologist is on site at the three-acre search zone on the outskirts of Chapelizod in Dublin to oversee the search which, it is hoped, will uncover the remains of Mr Deely, the 22-year-old Bank of Ireland employee who went missing on his way home from a Christmas party in December 2000.
