Bomb victim slams lack of Govt compensation

An Irishman injured in the 1974 Dublin and Monaghan bombings has slammed the Irish Government’s failure to provide him with compensation.

Thirty-four-year-old Edward O’Neill said he had been forced to seek money from the Northern Ireland Memorial Fund and to re-mortgage his home to fund an operation he is due to undergo in August to remove shrapnel from his body.
