Insect expert tells trial tank containing Bobby Ryan's body was opened weeks before accused says he found it

The tank containing Bobby Ryan's remains was opened weeks before the man accused of his murder said he discovered the DJ's decomposing body, an insect expert has told the Central Criminal Court.

Dr John Manlove, a forensic entomologist, told the murder trial of 50-year-old farmer Patrick Quirke that he saw common blow fly larvae in the deceased's chest cavity and on his back.
