Council workers discovered the man's skeleton inside a boarded up house last week
Police believe a dead body may have been lying in a bed for 20 years inside a home. The Irish Mirror reports that council workers discovered the skeleton inside a boarded up house.
Emergency services at the scene cordoned off the area around the one-storey home, while and fire service staff removed the remains to a morgue. The police do not currently suspect foul play in the death of the man, as Assistant State Pathologist Dr Margaret Bolster was last night due to carry out a post-mortem.
He added: “I find it hard to imagine. But it has happened before in other towns and villages where someone has been found. If they are local, it’s a very sad reflection that someone didn’t miss this person and say where would that person be.
