Police investigating a letter from Moors Murderer Ian Brady alleged to contain the location of one of his victims' bodies arrested a South Wales woman.
Jackie Powell, 49, who was appointed Brady's mental health advocate in 1999, was detained on suspicion of preventing the burial of a body without lawful exercise.
The Greater Manchester Police probe was to find out whether Brady had written a letter to be opened on his death revealing the location of Keith Bennett's body.
Police launched their investigation after Brady's mental health advocate told a Channel 4 documentary that he gave her a sealed envelope to pass to Winnie Johnson, the mother of his 12-year-old victim, in the event of his death.
But detectives examining documents seized from Ms Powell's home have so far found no evidence to suggest Brady has disclosed the location of Keith's body. And Ms Powell has since been released on bail pending further inquiries.
