DNA tests could reveal the identities of bodies found in an underworld graveyard in Sydney. <\/p>\n
The tests could verify the bodies of Melbourne hitman Christopher Dale Flannery and missing heiress Juanita Neilsen, presumed victims of Sydney gangsters in the 1970s and '80s, News Ltd reports. <\/p>\n
The pair's DNA will be be tested against samples from bones found in sand dunes at Kurnell, near Botany Bay, by workers building a desalination plant in 2005. <\/p>\n
Soon after police contacted relatives of Flannery, known as Mr Rent-a-Kill, to obtain a DNA sample, the report says. <\/p>\n
NSW homicide commander Detective Superintendent Michael Willing says the remains belong to two males and there is the possibility of a third person. <\/p>\n
Police will match samples against their missing persons database. <\/p>\n
There is speculation the dunes could have been a dumping ground for killers such as Neddy Smith, the report says. <\/p>\n
'Because of that, some people are suggesting they (the bones) could be Flannery's or a missing prostitute called Lyn Woodward,' Det Willing told News Ltd. <\/p>\n
'To be honest, we do not have any idea whose remains they are.' <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
