Home Office pledge to Brady victim's mum

THE mother of Moors murder victim Keith Bennett has been told the Home Office will do all it can to find the body of her son.

Minister Fiona McTaggart has written to Winnie Johnson, 72, to say she has asked police to brief her on their investigation.

It is understood the letter was written before yesterday's revelations that killer Ian Brady had written to Mrs Johnson. But it does not pledge to dig up areas of Saddleworth Moor, near Manchester, where 12-year-old Keith was believed to be buried by Brady and Myra Hindley.
