Police are continuing to search Saddleworth Moor, but are yet to find any identifiable human remains
Police are continuing to search Saddleworth Moor for the remains of Moors Murders victim Keith Bennett. Officers started digging in the area last Friday following information supplied by an amateur sleuth who has spent years looking for the child.
With the search now well into its sixth day, GMP forensic experts have failed to find any identifiable human remains. Images taken this afternoon show several officers in white suits continuing to comb the rugged, remote moorland.At least three police tents remain in place near to the area where officers have been digging. Police have dug 3ft down in the immediate area identified by Mr Russell and then several metres beyond that.
“These accredited and certified forensic experts are now continuing with a methodical and controlled excavation of the area immediately surrounding the original site to provide a higher level of assurance of the presence or absence of any items of interest. Further soil samples have been taken for analysis, but at this time there is no visible evidence to suggest the presence of human remains. The scene examination is ongoing.
“GMP is committed to providing Keith’s family with answers following this report, both from the physical excavation and subsequent analysis of his will takea some time but we will keep the family updated at every stage and request that their privacy is respected.
