Harry at it again
Lurgan youth Denis Kelly, who was stopped and arrested for
traffic offences by `community' RUC man Jeffery Crone (No 18297)
on Saturday 29 November, has been the victim of an attempt to
recruit him as an informer.
Kelly was told to go to Lurgan barracks that night and while
there an RUC man calling himself Sam, but whose real name is
Harry, tried to recruit him.
During Kelly's 40 minute detention Harry revealed detailed
knowledge about him, where he lives and works and the fact that
he is paying off a £500 fine. Harry accused Kelly of taking part
in car hijackings during rioting after Drumcree this year.
Kelly was told that everything would be ``dropped'' if he would
help the RUC. He is now being harassed and threatened every time
the RUC enter the estate where he lives. On Monday 1 December
someone calling himself Peter phoned the family home looking for
Denis. His father challenged the caller, who promptly hung up
when told the matter had been referred to a solicitor.
