Gardaí are following a “definite line of enquiry”.

Gardaí are investigating “all the circumstances” following the discovery of juvenile skeletal remains in Cork.

The skeleton was found in Killeagh, following a tip to Gardaí in Midleton.

The remains have since been removed to Cork City Morgue, and the assistance of a Forensic Anthropologist has been sought.

Gardaí have confirmed that they are following a definite line of enquiry.

A post-mortem is still scheduled to take place, and the results of the examination will direct the course of the investigation.
