"Gardai named the missing boy as Daniel Aruebose, who is thought to have vanished in 2022 aged three, after they discovered the remains on Wednesday in the Donabate area of north Dublin. Officers secured the scene pending examinations by a pathologist and forensic anthropologist. Police believe the body is that of Daniel but formal identification must await DNA analysis. Specialist teams and a cadaver dog began the search on 1 September after authorities became aware that the child was missing."
"Police urged anyone with relevant information to come forward and appealed to the public to beware speculation, rumours and theories about what happened to Daniel. The children's minister, Norma Foley, said the death of a child was always heartbreaking and upsetting. But it is especially so for those who knew and loved this child. I extend my very sincere sympathy to all involved."
Remains of a child were discovered on wasteland in the Donabate area of north Dublin and are believed to be those of Daniel Aruebose, who vanished in 2022 aged three. Officers secured the scene for examinations by a pathologist and forensic anthropologist, and formal identification must await DNA analysis. Specialist teams and a cadaver dog began a search on 1 September after social protection alerted Tusla to irregularities in a child support application and Tusla notified police. The case has prompted renewed scrutiny of child welfare services after four years passed without authorities recognising the child as missing, and police asked the public to provide information and to independently verify social media reports to avoid speculation.
