MOORS Murderer Ian Brady is on the brink of death.
The monster, who killed five children in the 1960s, is receiving end-of-life care from nurses who assist terminal cancer patients.
Brady, 79, is being treated at secure Ashworth Hospital, Merseyside.
The brother of 12-year-old victim John Kilbride said: “We’ll certainly celebrate his death when it comes. Good riddance.”
Dying Brady has been urged to reveal where the last of his five child murder victims is buried.
The fiend has never disclosed where he dumped the body of Keith Bennett, 12.
Terry Kilbride, whose brother John, 12, was also a victim, told The Sun: “I would beg him to do the right thing on his deathbed and tell us where Keith is.
“Now is the time for him to stop playing tricks and come clean.
“If he takes it to the grave, I will feel so sorry for Keith’s family.
“There will only ever be another search if there’s fresh evidence.

“That has to come from him.
“When Brady dies I truly hope he rots in hell. That’s the only place he’s going.”
Brady is receiving palliative care at Ashworth hospital, Merseyside.
He has been housed there since being diagnosed as a psychopath in 1985.
A source said: “He is gravely ill and everyone there is prepared for him dying.
“He is receiving 24/7 treatment from nurses specialising in assisting patients with terminal cancer.
“Despite who he is and what he has done, they are being professional and trying to make him as comfortable as possible.”
NHS guidelines say palliative care is offered to patients considered “likely to die within the next 12 months. This includes people whose death is imminent”.
The exact cause of Brady’s ill health has not been revealed, but he was a heavy smoker for years.
In December he claimed to be suffering a lung and chest condition.
He said in a letter: “I’m still bedridden and have been for over two years. It is terminal.”
Brady and girlfriend Myra Hindley tortured and murdered five children between 1963 and 1965, burying some bodies on Saddleworth Moor near Oldham.
Pauline Reade, 16, and John Kilbride were taken in 1963.
Keith and Lesley Ann Downey, ten, went missing in 1964.
Edward Evans, 17, was killed in 1965.
Brady and Hindley were jailed for life for three murders in 1966 and later confessed to the others.
Hindley died in hospital aged 60 in 2002.
In 1985, Brady was transferred from jail to Ashworth.
He has been on suicide watch for years and went on hunger strike in 1999 in protest at being declared insane.
Since then he has been kept alive by being force fed a liquid diet by nasal tube.
In 2013, Brady forced a £250,000 mental health tribune in which he claimed he was no longer a paranoid schizophrenic and should be moved to a jail in his native Scotland and allowed to die.
But he lost the ruling and was returned to Ashworth.
In 2014 he had hospital treatment for two broken bones following a fall.
A year later he claimed his health was worsening.
Keith’s mum Winnie Johnson died in 2012.
She regularly demanded Brady show compassion and reveal where her son was buried on Saddleworth Moor.
Lawyer John Ainley said: “I have worked closely with Keith’s brother Alan since Winnie’s death.
“Alan was convinced Brady held the vital clue to Keith’s whereabouts.
“But despite more than one letter from me seeking Brady’s co-operation, he has not been prepared to help.
“The only hope is that he has provided important information to be passed on after his death so the family can at last have closure.”
