'Brutalised 'claims of McGuinness's former brother-in-law
A one-time brother-in-law of Sinn Fein’s Martin McGuinness, who was jailed in America for attempting to import a missile to Ireland, claimed at the new Inquiry into Bloody Sunday he had been ‘‘brutalised’’ by events that day 29 years ago.
Joseph McColgan maintained he had never been a member of the IRA, had no knowledge of Mr McGuinness’s alleged involvement in the Provisionals, and had never discussed events of January 30 1972 with the now Mid Ulster MP and Northern Ireland Education Minister.
