Investigator Calls for Crucial Information to Locate Seamus Maguire

An investigator appeals for critical details to bring closure to the family of Seamus Maguire, a victim of the Northern Ireland Troubles.

Tasked with Finding the Disappeared

Seamus Maguire, a victim of the troubles from Aghagallon, was murdered and secretly buried during the mid 1970s. The Independent Commission for the Location of Victims’ Remains (ICLVR) has issued a fresh appeal for information pertaining to his case, emphasizing the need for new leads to identify potential search sites.

Complex Investigation

Despite ongoing efforts since the case was referred in 2022, the commission is yet to pinpoint a specific search site in the Aghagallon/Derryclone area. The head of the investigation, Mark Pickard, stressed the importance of new information to solve the nearly 50-year-old mystery.

Humanitarian Efforts

The commission urges anyone with relevant details to come forward, citing the humanitarian goal of locating Seamus Maguire's remains and providing closure to his family. The appeal extends beyond Maguire to three other victims, underlining the commitment to resolving these cases from the Troubles era.
