attacks in the area. i suppose i didn't know much more about water top and other than that are going to call the right one commando claimed responsibility for the attack. so at this time i begin to ask questions of myself about what i did or didn't know but what i've actually happened i started to ask questions of local people about what they remembered about what they knew about the night and but we didn't know it really know where to go to try and find out more answers and at that stage someone mentioned to me the center in derry help families in similar situations to ourselves. i think it was 100-1009. 100 the office very softly spoken very friendly and he was wearing a sit and we thought he's going to sell us a photocopy or or or a printer and instead he began to tell us about the attack on the part one of his dad and what happened on the park runt he was aware that there was now for david available where we made
10:39 pm
a number of very serious allegations by collusion behavior and a number of attacks on the area. so we agreed we would look at it in detail and look at all the different attacks that happened in the area at the time it was all very new deal so. up to the point we've been active in the number of cases we cannot differ on plot it's only. bloody sunday justice campaign was was based on the office and we agreed to call together a meeting of what it says on the g. and silverbridge and what to says came forward a lot of witnesses came forward. and i suppose the significance of the me was that you had families with evidence and information but you also had witnesses the events on the significance of this being that there were so many connections so many permutations so many leads to follow obviously these have never been followed by official bodies or for people in authority even little it's being hugely painful and traumatic than we've lived this you know this is something we need to do. we
