Speaking to the Daily Mirror this evening, Mr Lee, now 69, said: “We all want answers, we’ve been to hell and back over the past 38 years.
“This arrest of course brings it all back and makes it feel raw.
“As with parents in all cases of missing children, we want a happy ending but that might not be the case and we just hope that we will get answers.”
