BBC reporter backs collusion claim
BBC journalist John Ware in the current issue of the New
Statesman magazine has presented evidence that British crown
forces effectively sentenced solicitor Pat Finucane to death nine
years ago.
Ware claims that not only did the ex-UDA commander Tommy `Tucker'
Lyttle tell him that two RUC detectives had urged a UDA gunman to
kill Finucane but that he has seen official intelligence
documents sentencing the prominent lawyer to death after a
supposed meeting with Gerry Adams.
While this new evidence adds yet more weight to the UN report
produced by Dr Param Cumaraswamy calling for an independent
inquiry into the Finucane murder, the British, who have
stonewalled the UN call for justice, have said that the Stevens
inquiry dealt with the issue. The RUC likewise expressed support
for the Stevens inquiry.
