FBI witheld information from Irish authorities, court hears

A senior FBI official told the Special Criminal Court today that the FBI had withheld certain documents from the Irish authorities in the case of Michael Mc Kevitt, the alleged leader of the real IRA.

Mr James Krupkowski, the Chief Division Counsel at the Chicago field office of the FBI, admitted that the Irish DPP had not been furnished with all files relating to David Rupert, the chief prosecution witness against Mc Kevitt.
