GARDAÍ IN BRAY investigating the discovery of human remains in the Wicklow Mountains have said that a post-mortem will determine the type of investigation to be carried out.
Speaking to RTÉ News this evening, Superintendent Pat Ward of Bray Garda Station said that the force was committing significant resources into following up on the discovery.
The discovery was made on Military Road, Enniskerry in the Wicklow Mountains by walkers around 7.45pm last night who immediately contacted Gardaí.
The scene of the discovery is preserved for a Garda forensic examination and the office of the State Pathologist and the local Coroner has been notified.
A post-mortem is due to be carried out on the remains.
It’s similar to a murder investigation,” Ward told reporters.
“The type of investigation we are undertaking is comparable to a murder investigation, we’re putting as much resources and effort into it as if it was a murder investigation.
But the type of investigation that we undertake from now will be determined by the result of the post-mortem examination.
The remains have yet to be identified and enquiries are ongoing. Searches at the site are continuing.
Investigating Gardaí are appealing for any person who may have seen anything suspicious in the area or who may have information in relation to this investigation to contact Bray Garda Station on 01-666 5300, the Garda Confidential Line 1800 -666- 111 or any Garda Station.

@ed w: How grown adults like fantasy nonsense is beyond me too.
@ed w: haven’t witnessed a great show So… and its a great drama that has you on the edge of your seat so what if it a fantasy
@Fionan MacKenna: 100′s of millions can’t be wrong
@ed w: Give it a go. You won’t regret it.
@Stan:
Fantasy is an escape from reality, anything is possible, the only limitation is ones imagination.
I would much prefer to watch Game of Thrones than big brother. I’m not a reality tv fan.
Fantasy and science fiction would be my favorite genres, then action and paranormal *not horror*.
@Lily: Comedy and sitcoms good too. RTE make no worthy comedy. Only reasonable show was the savage eye. UK sitcoms way better than American Friends big bang etc shite.
@ed w: I have but not on Sky, the wonders of an Android Box
@Paul Furey: 100′s of millions can be very wrong but surely its down to individual choice and taste. I wouldn’t be the biggest fan of “GoT” but to diss adults for liking fantasy isn’t right either. It’s an escape route from reality. To each their own!
@Joseph Dempsey: Care to share how u presumably, stream shows?
@Stan: kodi and the pulse build is all you need to Google
@Stan: download Showbox apk online (not play store) it has everything Netflix has and everything it doesn’t..
Sky is a rip off. Why is there no cheap way of phoning from here? It’s free to the North and UK to phone them but here there 0818 numbers cost fortune.
@Stan: if you have sky broadband you can phone for free
@Stan: I don’t think sky is a rip off at all. If you can’t afford it, saorview is free
@Michael Geraghty: They would use you on the next ad to spin that about cost. Leo would recruit you to his spin team too.
@Stan: pal it’s simple. If you think it’s a rip off don’t buy it. Plenty of others. If you can’t afford it. Use saorview. It’s a really basic point I’m making and nothing whatsoever to do with politics. U need a hobby
I’d be more inclined to think the increase in subscription is due to SKY working out how to block their channels from illegal card sharing boxes earlier this year and IPTV being useless for live sport.
Give us back Fox News!!
@Tristan Rowntree: Too right. Narrative hegemony is so dangerous
@Tristan Rowntree: agreed i miss it, just got comedy central and Dave now tp watch.
@Tristan Rowntree: I’m sure the negotiations for fox are the sling through the journal comments section looking for inspiration for their next multi million euro decision.
Kodi all the way
Pity they didn’t film it here – but we moaned about Schelig….
same over and over again….harry potter with stubble
Love them or hate them, Sky are the kings when it comes to television, they’re streets ahead of everyone else. Their phone and broadband isn’t bad either, and in fairness they’ll bend over backwards to keep you as a customer.
Looks crap.
@purple rain: Prince was crap
@Paul Furey: who ?
Virgin being such a useless shower of *@%$#@¥ is why i switched
have your say
