The body of a small boy was discovered washed ashore in Tayport, but his identity remains a mystery to this day
A heartbreaking mystery that shook Scotland more than 50 years ago has been revisited as the topic of a new podcast.
The BBC has now launched a new series which seeks to ultimately solve the mystery of the unknown bairn. "The Cruelty: A Child Unclaimed" is a nine-part podcast following presenter Davie Donaldson as he tries to finally determine who this boy was. In discovering a lead, Donaldson connected with a retired police officer who claimed to have clues to the boy's identity, but were never followed up on. Bob Beverage said that circumstances suggested the child is linked to the traveller community.
Throughout his research, Donaldson discovers allegations of authority mistreatment towards a marginalised community, which may have contributed to the long-standing mystery. The presenter also examines his own identity, while coming to terms with the shocking discovery. Ian delved into the chilly sea to investigate and made a chilling discovery. To his horror, he had just uncovered the body of a small boy, wearing only a T-shirt and a pair of wellies.
