The body of Irish pilgrim Winifred Mary Brady was identified in Međugorje today. She went missing in September of last year in this rural Herzegovina town.
Winifred’s husband Stephen identified her body, said Adrijana Čolak, daughter of the owner of guesthouse “Lola” where Brady had stayed during her visit to Međugorje.
The body of Winifred was found three days ago by a local hunter Vidan Kozina on the hill of Crnici near Međugorje, a kilometer away from the first houses in Bijakovići settlement.
