Cowen and Clinton asked to mark Finucane murder anniversary

Taoiseach Brian Cowen and former US President Bill Clinton are among several high-profile guests invited to mark the 20th anniversary of the murder of Belfast solicitor Pat Finucane.

Mr Finucane, 39, was gunned down by loyalist paramilitaries as he ate a meal with his family at his home in February 1989, although the British security forces have repeatedly been implicated in the killing.
