McGuinness: Bloody Sunday shooting accusation 'bogus'

Sinn Fein’s Martin McGuinness announced today he had instructed his legal team to play no part in the cross-examination of MI5 agents due to give evidence to the Bloody Sunday tribunal this week.

Mr McGuinness, who has admitted being the Provisional IRA’s number two in Derry on Bloody Sunday, has denied claims by an agent known only as Infliction that he fired the first shot on Bloody Sunday.
