Finucane inquiry 'must be made public'

The British government was warned today that an inquiry into the murder of Belfast solicitor Pat Finucane must be held in public.

After Northern Ireland Secretary Paul Murphy indicated he would be making a public statement soon on the British government’s handling of the case, SDLP leader Mark Durkan said there needed to be a full public investigation into the level of RUC and British Army intelligence involvement in the 1989 shooting.
