The remains of Australia's greatest outlaw, Ned Kelly, are now the
subject of a dispute between developers and his family.

Kelly, who was the son of Tipperary born John 'Red' Kelly,
was 25 when he was captured and hanged in Melbourne.

His headless skeleton was only discovered last year,
and the Government announced they would hand over
his remains to his family.

This week however, the developer of the former Pentridge
Prison, said he wanted to keep the remains.

Although the family say they want to bury his remains on
consecrated ground, in accordance with his wishes.
