Gardaí in Bray have released new information on today’s discovery of human remains in the ongoing Wicklow Mountains investigation.
Further remains, including a female’s head and hands, were found by Gardaí in a bag 3km north of Glenmacnass waterfall at approximately 1pm this afternoon following the initial discovery of a human torso near Old Military Road on Saturday night.
Superintendent Pat Ward has this evening stated that the remains found are of an adult, Caucasian female, not of a male as previously believed.
