Police apologise unreservedly to McConville family
Police in the North today apologised to an IRA murder victim’s family after a new report revealed it took them 20 years to carry out a proper investigation.
Despite intelligence that mother-of-ten Jean McConville – one of the so-called 'Disappeared' – was still alive for some time after she was abducted from her west Belfast home in December 1972, Police Ombudsman Nuala O’Loan has delivered a damning assessment of how the inquiry was handled.
