President Higgins calls for State inquiry as detectives finally begin to investigate the horrific discovery
Gardai have launched an investigation into the mass baby grave scandal, it was revealed last night.
Detectives have questioned two men who found bones on the site in Tuam, Co Galway, in 1975.
They will now decide whether to launch a full criminal investigation into the dumping of the children’s bodies without proper burial or records.
The move came as President Michael D Higgins said he was “appalled” by the revelations and called for a Government inquiry.
