Human rights group slams decision to censor Stevens report

The Belfast-based Committee on the Administration of Human Rights has criticised plans to publish just 15 pages from a 3,000-page report on the inquiry into alleged British collusion in the 1989 murder of Catholic solicitor Pat Finucane.

The committee said the decision was a scandal and an effective waste of the €4m spent on the inquiry, which was carried out over the last decade by John Stevens, the Commissioner of the British Metropolitan Police.
