Sinn Fein 'hopes family will get closure from discovery of remains'
Tuesday November 11 2008
Sinn Fein says it hopes the family of Danny McIlhone will get some closure from the discovery of remains in Co. Wicklow, believed to be that of the missing 19-year-old.
The teenager disappeared in west Belfast in 1981.
Remains were found in the Ballynultagh area of Wicklow by a team working for the independent commission which searches for the remains of people killed and buried in secret by the IRA.
Danny McIlhone's family say they are hoping and praying for good news and have asked for privacy.
Sinn Fein MEP Mary Lou McDonald has said Republicans have been forthcoming with information.
