Britain's most notorious serial killer reportedly demanded to have his remains scattered on Saddleworth Moor - where he buried child victims with lover Myra Hindley. Brady (left) died of cancer and emphysema at a secure mental health hospital in May this year - and his body was kept in cold storage as the High Court stepped in to stop his dying wish. After five months Brady's body was finally collected from the morgue at Royal Liverpool Hospital at around 9pm on October 25. It was taken to Southport Crematorium under heavy police escort before the cremation began at 10pm. His ashes were then driven to Liverpool Marina and dispatched at sea at a secret location at 2.30am the following day. Terry West, the brother of ten-year-old victim Lesley-Ann Downey, said today : 'My little sister didn't get to choose how she was buried. If I had my way, I would just flush his ashes down the toilet.' Inset, file photo of a Himalayan rock salt urn; right, police on Saddleworth Moor.
