McGuinness: ‘I did not kill or shoot anyone’

PRESIDENTIAL hopeful Martin McGuinness said he did not kill or shoot anyone when he was a member of the IRA between 1970 and 1974.

When it was put to him on radio in Cork that he was saying he did not use guns during his time in the IRA, Mr McGuinness said he was not saying that.

Speaking to journalists, he refused to expand on his role in the IRA prior to his being elected in 1982.
