GRA fury at Taoiseach's intentions for McCabe killers

The Garda Representative Association has reacted with fury to the Taoiseach's announcement the IRA killers of Garda Gerry McCabe will be released as part of a deal to renew the peace process.

Bertie Ahern told the Dáil that he would be recommending the release as part of a deal to secure complete IRA decommissioning despite previous assurances they would serve their full sentences.
