Kersal Wetlands: Stuart Everett believed to be victim in Salford human remains investigation

A man believed to be the victim after a torso was found in a Salford nature reserve has been named as Stuart Everett. Police said DNA samples had been sent for urgent analysis to formally confirm the victim's identity. Mr Everett, 67, lived in the local area. A major investigation started after the torso, wrapped in plastic, was found at Kersal Dale Wetlands on 4 April.

The discovery of the torso four weeks ago - consisting of the bottom of the back, buttocks and thigh - prompted a large search for other remains to try to identify the victim.
