Garda ‘told me to sprinkle fertiliser on carpet’

AN alleged IRA informant yesterday told the Morris Tribunal how she and two gardaí carried bomb-making equipment into addresses in Co Donegal.

She also reported being told at one stage by a garda detective to sprinkle ground fertiliser on to the carpet of the bedroom of her home.

But Adrienne McGlinchey denied ever being a member of the IRA or any other terrorist organisation or taking part in bombings, insisting: "I am against all that."
