Adams demands probe into gun-attack report
Sinn Féin president Gerry Adams today called on the Northern Ireland Police Ombudsman to investigate a gun attack on him over 20 years ago after a newspaper claimed Special Branch knew of a plot a week in advance.
The West Belfast MP announced he had instructed his solicitor to write to Nuala O’Loan following the publication of a report in the Andersonstown News that linked the old RUC Special Branch to the gun attack on him in 1984.
