Jersey search at pillbox
JERSEY police are to search a second site as part of the investigation into historic child abuse on the island.
According to reports, the new site is a Second World War bunker. Several alleged victims have told police that they were abused in a German-built pillbox in the east of the island.
Excavations in the past four months have concentrated on the former Haut de la Garenne care home where police uncovered dozens of disturbing finds.
The investigation started after the discovery of what was initially believed to be part of a child's skull. Tests later suggested the fragment was more likely to be a piece of wood or part of a coconut.
Although the first find has been ruled out, police believe later evidence points to the possibility of murder.
