Ex-detective recalls concern over explosives find

Concern and confusion over a reported find of terrorist material in Co Donegal nearly a decade ago were detailed today at the continuing Morris Tribunal probe of Garda corruption allegations.

Retired detective James Leheny recalled that the discovery of around 14 stones of suspected explosives in Letterkenny had been viewed by him as a “McGlinchey production” – one involving alleged IRA informer Adrienne McGlinchey.
