Bloody Sunday tribunal to delay legal action against McGuinness

THE Bloody Sunday tribunal decided yesterday to delay taking legal action against Sinn Féin MP Martin McGuinness for refusing to reveal the names of fellow IRA members.

Inquiry chairman, Lord Saville, said they would continue the process of encouraging former paramilitaries to come forward of their own accord to give evidence.

If this happens, the significance of the Sinn Fein leader's refusal to name names would no longer be of any significance, he said.
