THE WOODLAND search for missing Irishman Trevor Deely has concluded with no further evidence.
The search for the 22 year old Irishman who went missing 17 years ago began at the site almost six weeks ago.
Missing: Trevor Deely, 22, disappeared 17 years ago. (Picture: Garda)Gardaí said the excavation at the search site began as they had received 'significant' information in the investigation into the young Irishman's disappearance.
The three acre site between a public road and the River Liffey was cordoned off during the search, just eight kilometres from where Mr Deely was last seen in 2000.
However, in a statement to The Irish Post, An Garda Síochána said they concluded the search at the site yesterday, September 21.
"Gardaí investigating the disappearance of Trevor Deely have completed their search operation at the site in Chapelizod, Dublin 10.
"An Garda Síochána wish to thank the public for their patience during the operation.
"Unfortunately nothing that furthers the search for Trevor was located during the search. The site remains closed to the public."
Trevor Deely, 22 and from Naas, Co. Kildare, was last captured on CCTV passing the Bank of Ireland ATM machine on Haddington Road in Dublin at approximately 4.14am on December 8, 2000.
Following his Christmas party that evening, Trevor called to his place of work to collect an umbrella as it was raining.
While the investigation into his disappearance has never been closed, the Garda Review Team at Pearse Street Garda Station have been investigating Mr Deely’s disappearance since September 2016, under the command of Detective Superintendent Peter O’Boyle and Detective Inspector Paul Costello.
Digital enhancement of the CCTV footage of Mr Deely’s movements that morning – which was released in April – showed him talking to and being followed by a man dressed in black acting suspiciously near Mr Deely’s workplace between 3.30 and 4.14 that morning.
