Joe Lynskey and Robert Nairac: 'Bodies will never be found’, IRA source admits
About this episode
Joe Lynskey, one of the Disappeared, was murdered by his IRA colleagues in 1972 and his body secretly buried. Remains recently found in a County Monaghan grave were hoped to belong to him, but the DNA says no. The finding leaves a new mystery - who was the extra body in the plot, and if it wasn’t Joe Lynskey - then whose remains are they? What are republican sources saying about the prospects of finding him now?
Ciarán Dunbar is joined by the Belfast Telegraph’s security correspondent, Allison Morris.
