IRA genuinely helping find bodies: Adams

The IRA has made a genuine attempt to help locate the bodies of people abducted, killed and buried during the Troubles, Sinn Féin leader Gerry Adams insisted tonight.

Just 24 hours after the organisation issued a statement insisting it had passed on all the information available to them about the burial sites of the so called disappeared,” Mr Adams hoped an end could be brought to the agony of the families of Jean McConville and Columba McVeigh.
