Adams: Outright anger at Omagh killing

PEOPLE in republican heartlands are “seething with anger” over the murder of policeman Ronan Kerr, Gerry Adams has said.

The Sinn Féin president and TD condemned the murder of the 25-year-old Catholic and said party colleague Martin McGuinness had spoken for mainstream republicans when he met the bereaved family to pass on his condolences.

Mr Adams appealed for anyone with information on the attack to come forward, but he said a major effort must be made to ensure the murder, being blamed on dissident republicans, is the last killing of its kind.
