The Torso in the Canal
“However, this was complicated by the fact that divers from the Garda Sub-Aqua Unit had to map out the exact locations of the body parts in the canal and retrieve any forensic evidence present.
The canal was 1.8 metres deep under the bridge, which made the job even more difficult. It should also be noted that Noor’s torso had already been taken from the water by this stage by two officers, Brian Breathnach and Eoin Ferriter. They began removing the smaller body parts that were visible from t...he bank around 9.55am after they had surveyed the scene.
It was clear from the start that those tasked with investigating the killing understood the importance of gathering as much vital evidence as possible. To ensure this goal was achieved, an underwater video camera was erected to document the search for forensic evidence.
The process was slow, and in many ways revolting. The body parts were in an advanced state of decomposition; the flesh was brittle to the touch and came off the bone easily when disturbed.MoreLess
