Gardai say they will work with the local coroner in Monaghan to correctly identify the human remains exhumed last year as part of the search for the burial place of Joe Lynskey.
It comes after the Independent Commission for the Location of Victims' Remains confirmed yesterday the human remains are not those of Mr Lynskey, who was abducted and murdered by the IRA more than 50 years ago.
The remains were exhumed after the commission received information about suspicious activity at a grave in Annyalla cemetery during the 1970s.
The commission also confirmed the remains do not belong to any of the remaining members of the so-called disappeared. Attempts to identify the remains will include cross checking the DNA on databases both in Ireland and globally.
