Police are considering widening their search for the remains of Moors Murders victim Keith Bennett. Officers started digging on Saddleworth Moor on Friday following information supplied by an amateur sleuth who has spent years looking for the child.

Author Edward Russell showed police pictures of what was described as part of a jaw bone, after working with a team of experts to try to find Keith's remains.

But so far four days of searching by GMP forensic experts has failed to find any identifiable human remains. The search will continue tomorrow and possibly for several more days this week for the child, who was murdered in 1964 by Ian Brady and Myra Hindley.

Police have dug 3ft down in the immediate area identified by Mr Russell and then several metres beyond that. They are now considering widening the search area even further to make certain they have not missed anything.
