Sir Ken Bloomfield and Mr Frank Murray, Commissioners of The Independent Commission for the Location of Victims Remains (ICLVR) have issued the following statement:

The Independent Commission for the Location of Victims Remains (ICLVR) has received the results of the DNA examination carried out on the human remains recovered by the ICLVR team at Waterfoot in County Antrim, on the 2 November 2010.

The results positively indicate that the remains are those of Mr Peter Wilson.
