Attacks continue
The INLA shot dead Trevor Deeney, who had links with
the UVF and served a prison sentence for UVF activity
in the 1980s, at about 12.15am on Wednesday morning as
he arrived home from work.
The dead man from the Kilfennan area on the Waterside,
Derry was reported to have delivered statements to
local journalists on behalf of the LVF. His brother
Jeffrey is serving life for the Greysteel killings of
1993 and is presently on the LVF wing in the H Blocks.
The man, a step-father of four children, was in the
passenger seat of the car driven by his wife when the
INLA struck; six shot were fired in the attack.
Sinn Fein's Lynn Fleming said that ``the killing
highlighted the need for politicians to intensify the
search for peace.''
Meanwhile, bomb making material found in Kansas Avenue,
off the Antrim Road in North Belfast is believed to
have belonged to the Continuity Army Council (CAC).
Material for up to 1.5 tonnes of explosives was found
in a search of a flat in Kansas Avenue on Monday night
at about 10pm.
The Kansas Avenue bomb was the second explosives find
to be made in the past week. On Thursday 2 April a
massive explosives device was found on board a BMW car
about to be driven on to the Stena ferry bound for
Holyhead, in Wales.
Media speculation pointed to the involvment of
``dissident republicans''.
One man was later charged with possession of the
explosives.
