THE family of a missing sailor say they hope the latest search for his body will finally give them the answers they crave.
Detectives are digging up a car park in Gibraltar as part of a probe into the disappearance of Able Seaman Simon Parkes, 18, who went missing 37 years ago, following a new line of inquiry.
The Royal Navy sailor was last seen in December 1986 when the ship he was serving on, HMS Illustrious, was docked in the British territory.
He is thought to have been murdered by Petty Officer Allan Grimson, who was serving on the aircraft carrier and who may have killed up to 20 men.
Grimson was jailed for life in 2001 for the murder of two young men but is up for parole next month.
