Brother in plea to locate Moors victim’s body

Keith Bennett will remain “in the possession” of Moors murderers Ian Brady and Myra Hindley until his body is found, the victim’s brother has said.

Alan Bennett said the death of his mother, Winnie, 78, on Saturday, must not be seen as closure to the case, as the family vowed to continue the fight to locate the remains of the 12-year-old.

Brady, 74, has been urged by police to “at last do the decent thing” and finally tell them where he buried him on Saddleworth Moor above Manchester so Keith can be given a Christian burial.
