Robinson call on paramilitaries to admit to wrongdoing

All those who carried out atrocities in the North should put their wrongdoing on public record, the First Minister said today.

Peter Robinson accepted the Saville report Findings into Bloody Sunday and said it was time for closure for victims.

The Democratic Unionist leader expressed sympathy for the bereaved of the 1972 shooting by soldiers in Derry but said everybody needed to come clean.

“We can’t expect the truth to be told and then not be prepared to tell it yourself,” he said.

“There’s a requirement from all of the paramilitary organisations to ’fess up and indicate the roles that they played.”
