Ombudsman 'has evidence of Omagh cover-up'

A spokesman for a group of former British spies has said the North’s Police Ombudsman has evidence that the RUC was aware of the Omagh bomb plot two days before the atrocity claimed 31 lives.

Willie Carlin said Nuala O’Loan has received a tape recording of an intelligence agent telling his police handler of the plot to plant a massive bomb in the North.
