Families of Omagh victims seek documents as part of civil action
The families of some of those killed in the Omagh bombing are seeking the discovery of documentation from five individuals who have appeared before the Special Criminal Court and are being sued for damages arising out of the 1998 explosion that killed 29 people, the High Court in Dublin heard today.
The families have brought a motion where they are seeking from the five men the discovery of documents, including books of evidence and the transcripts of criminal trials involving each of the five, which the families say are relevant to a damages action which is to take place before the High Court in Belfast.
