Wind and waves delay efforts to retrieve woman’s body after Cliffs of Moher fall

A GRIEVING Dublin family will learn today if a coastguard rescue unit can recover a woman’s body from the base of the weather-lashed Cliffs of Moher.

The victim, in her 40s and from the southside of Dublin, lost her life within minutes of arriving at the landmark site after she fell to her death from a viewing platform.

The woman’s name was not released last night but her next-of-kin, who face an agonising wait for the recovery of the body, arrived in Co Clare last night.
