Loyalists sixth victim
Patrick Feeney, the catholic worker murdered on Monday evening,
February 20th, at Liddle's linen factory in the County Down village
of Donaghcloney has become the latest victim of loyalist murder
squads operating throughout the six counties. His death, like that of
the other five victims murdered in the first two months of this year,
is part of one of the most concerted campaigns waged by pro-British
assassins in recent years.
Feeney, a 32 year old single man from Tullylish near Gilford, County
Down, worked as a security guard on the factory's front gate one
night a week. He was at the main factory entrance in the middle of
Donaghcloney village at 9pm when his killers drove up in a stolen car
and fired up to five shots from close range. He died instantly.
