Two arrested in connection with McGuinness phone tap leaks

Police in the North have arrested a man and a woman in connection with the leaking of transcripts of bugged telephone conversations between Sinn Féin's Martin McGuinness and British officials.

Yesterday, a 48-year-old former RUC Special Branch officer was arrested in connection with the leaks, which Sinn Féin said were designed to undermine the peace process.
