New information has led to fresh efforts to find the body of one | :00:10. | :00:14. | |
A specialist forensic team is preparing to examine part | :00:15. | :00:19. | |
of a bog in County Meath for the remains of Brendan Megraw. | :00:20. | :00:23. | |
It'll be the fourth attempt in 14 years. | :00:24. | :00:26. | |
Brendan Megraw was 23 and a newlywed when he was abducted near his home | :00:27. | :00:35. | |
His wife was pregnant with their first child. | :00:36. | :00:44. | |
Finally in 1999, the IRA admitted the murder and named an area | :00:45. | :00:50. | |
in County Meath where they claimed to have buried Brendan. | :00:51. | :00:55. | |
Since then, three separate searches have taken | :00:56. | :00:58. | |
place there, the first one lasting more than one month. | :00:59. | :01:10. | |
In nothing was found. There was another search in 2010. A game | :01:11. | :01:18. | |
ending in disappointment. It has left the family wary. | :01:19. | :01:23. | |

get worked out but we have had three diggs before and especially | :01:27. | :01:28. | |
the first one which lasted a long time, maybe four or five weeks. | :01:29. | :01:32. | |
The Independent Commission for the location of victims' | :01:33. | :01:44. | |
remains says the information they had received involves an area | :01:45. | :01:47. | |
It is a terrible time for the families and even more | :01:48. | :01:51. | |
disturbing when we undertake these searches and draw a blank. | :01:52. | :01:53. | |
I don't want to raise hopes unnecessarily but we would | :01:54. | :01:56. | |
like to think that what we have is significant and that it will lead to | :01:57. | :02:00. | |
a successful outcome on this occasion. | :02:01. | :02:07. | |
Forensic archaeologists are due to begin a survey of the land within | :02:08. | :02:10. | |
