Notorious loyalist group ‘may be on verge of disbanding’
The Loyalist Volunteer Force, set up in 1996 by notorious murderer Billy Wright, could reportedly be on the verge of disbanding.
Reports in the North last night said the group "could" announce this week that it was standing down and ending its activities.
The move follows a vicious turf war over the past few months in which the larger Ulster Volunteer Force has been trying to wipe out its smaller rival.
The UVF murdered three men with links to the LVF during the summer as part of the feud over control of the lucrative drugs trade.
