McGuinness challenges minister on Sinn Féin allegations

Justice Minister Michael McDowell must “put up or shut up” over his allegations that senior members of Sinn Féin have been involved in IRA criminal activity, Martin McGuinness said today.

The Mid-Ulster Sinn Féin MP issued a challenge to Mr McDowell to substantiate claims he made in a series of interviews about Sinn Féin’s links to the provisionals.
