Gerry Adams urged to tell all on Brian Stack

Gerry Adams has been called on to tell gardaí everything he knows about the murder of a Portlaoise prison officer over 30 years ago.

The Sinn Féin leader yesterday told the Dáil he was prepared to make a statement to the chamber about the killing of Brian Stack, who died after being shot by the IRA in 1983.

Party leaders called on him to say what he knew about the murder amid criticism over Mr Adams bringing the prison officer’s sons to a secret meeting with the IRA in 2013.
