Garda spent cold nights in ditch spying on IRA
The Morris Tribunal yesterday heard PJ Togher spent the freezing winter of 1992 lying alone in a ditch near Drumkeen, Co Donegal, as the Provo gang built the massive explosive.
In a statement to tribunal investigators in September 2003 as they probed garda corruption, Mr Togher told of the efforts he had made to catch the IRA unit and he spoke of his sadness at claims of dirty policing.
