Forensics team find remains

A FORENSICS team searching for the body of a British journalist kidnapped by Palestinian militants more than 20 years ago recovered human remains in Lebanon, the Foreign Office said yesterday.

British experts excavating a site in the Bekaa Valley reportedly dug up two bodies, one of which is undergoing DNA testing to determine if it is Alec Collett, who was abducted in 1985. The other body is said to be that of an unidentified man who was first discovered during an earlier attempt to find Collett.
