Omagh: Secret room found

AN UNDERGROUND room concealed in a cupboard was discovered in the house of one of five men accused of being responsible for the most lethal bomb of the conflict in the north, a court heard yesterday.

Gardaí told the Omagh civil case in Dublin that £2,000 (€2,500), two disposable body suits and face masks, binoculars and a range of communication devices, were also found in Liam Campbell’s Co Louth home, car and garage.

Campbell and four others are being sued by six families, who believe they were responsible for the Omagh blast that killed 29 people and injured hundreds more.
