Former IRA 'spy' found shot dead


Denis Donaldson , a former British secret agent for over 20 years, a former Republican Sinn Fein politician and head at Stormont, has been found shot dead at his Donegal home in the village of Glenties. He had been living in the run down cottage in self imposed exile, without electricity or running water.

Peter Hain, Northern Ireland Secretary told Sky News, “I am completely appalled by this barbaric act”. His son was ‘viciously beaten’ recently in an attack in Northern Ireland, Sky News reported. There are rumours that the body had been ‘ritually mutilated” according to Sky’s Adam Bolton. The IRA has said that they had “no involvement” in the killing. Bertie Ahern the Irish Prime Mininister said he condemned the “brutal murder”. DUP leader Dr Ian Paisley told Sky News, “It seems to me to point the finger of blame towards the IRA and Sinn Fein”. He cited that it was further reason “not to go into government with them [Sinn Fein]”. Posted by Picasa
