Ned Kelly's remains identified

Australian scientists have identified the remains of Ned Kelly, the country's most celebrated outlaw.

He was hanged in 1880 after being convicted of killing a policeman, and spending years on the run.

Kelly, a cattle-rustler of Irish descent, was the subject of the world's first ever feature film in 1906 and, even today, opinion is split as to whether he was a cold-blooded killer or a folk hero who took a stand against Colonial persecution.

But the renegade's legend lives on, as Al Jazeera's Andrew Thomas reports from Sydney.
