so when you want to be president you. want to be. that's a right to be for us as a wife of 43 a boy can't be good. i'm interested always in the water as in the how. question and. in dublin the campaign group justice for the forgotten had for years been demanding a public inquiry into the dublin amman bombings. it still took 7 years for the irish government 6 years after the ira's $994.00 cease fire to agree to a restricted form of inquiry under justice henry byron the inquiry found in his own careful words and despite london refusing to cooperate with the inquiry that the case for collusion was neither fanciful nor absurd. crucially however for the families bereaved by other glennon murders north of the border
6:31 pm
byron published a full appendix listing the ballistic links between other key attacks. after publication of the barn report it became obvious that there was still no response from the state. very serious allegations of criminality were not going to be investigated that there was going to be no response and so we decided that we should respond we should bring people in and their national figures so we approached a number of people u.n. investigators who'd worked to el salvador people who'd worked in the south african truth commission and others academics lawyers people thinks periods and we invited them to ireland and i asked them to look at the evidence to me was whistleblowers to meet with families to meet with p.s. and i was seated on many others and a troll their own conclusions patrolled their own report the international panel report which is what they did and it was a very valuable experience to have people from outside the jurisdiction come here look at the evidence and come to the.
6:32 pm
10 years ago from 2004 to 2006 i had the privilege of chairing an independent international inquiry into a potential collusion by british security forces in paramilitary killings of catholics in northern ireland. they certainly were not a few bad apples there are a significant number of kurdish intelligence agents from within the car you see the u.d.r. who were involved directly in these killings who are in collusion with them. and their activities there are illegal activities according to the evidence we received were known to their immediate superiors putting a number of chief inspectors and inspectors where we were not able to ascertain if the time is how far up the chain of command this went we do know that senior
6:33 pm
authorities in london were on notice of information that should have caused them to contort further investigations of this collusion in northern ireland we found no no indication that they took that obligation seriously. the next big step change came when they historically inquiries team was set up to investigate all the unsolved murders of the conflict which quickly was broadened to all. the conflicts and within that organization the a.g.t. there was a special team set up to investigate claims of collusion away the state was allegedly involved in the matches it was headed up by a particularly intelligent determined detective called steve morris. on. a full review of a number of motos the. i believe sort of. involved certain degrees of collusion it
6:34 pm
was already evidently been some degrees of collusion from a lower level and by those members of the security forces that were directly involved but as the review can seniors and we found out more i was surprised about the extent and the take rates which the collusion was involved in some of those cases. the one case that totally surprised me was the the fatal bombing of the step in in august launching 76 people were killed where there was overseen by. police offices. that really flabbergasted me by the lack of response from the only you see. it was quite evident from the outside looking at certain interviews material and documents that elements of the all you see. some of their offices who were planning and eventually carried out the face of the step in
6:35 pm
so many others which are. in the past 7 years. suspecting customers were inside. what it's incomprehensible to me. that they all use a senior level were aware that a bombing was being carried out and in fact the bombing at the. knowing who was responsible and knowing who they were they still did nothing about. none of those offices were arrested until 1978 and even then my words arrested specifically for the step in they were arrested for other matters so from the opus 976 until december 19th. the all you see did nothing.
6:36 pm
ross the step in bombing was the smoking gun because although we believe that it was very similar to a lot of other attacks in the clinic there is the difference with the step in was the historical enquiries team under steve morris managed to find all the paperwork . which showed that that what the authorities had known about the plan leading up to the step in the carrying out of the bombing itself and the facts that although they knew every single person who'd been involved in the planning the old coordination the determining of the target the making of the ball the storing up the bomb everything then you everybody and everything about this ball despite that and spite the fact that 2 people were killed and a huge number of other people were very seriously engines not one single person was charged or convicted without bombing despite the i you see knowing everything about it. the more we really see all those years not easier of course.
6:37 pm
they have this did not miss him came true even if. relief. that i had gone on a cord. because i knew army was there and checked the horsing i'd need to check this coming of pharma and its orders. and their army and the british was in company argentina bonior. and known as you are you question. and question on the h.e.g. jovovich one thing that there was this survey of. the mid-afternoon and the bone was there for a good show this did committed the murder that is not just. order. and wait your partner change to bed. the only part of the inquest. i know more can they.
6:38 pm
own up to what they don't. it was clear deals from c. in the individual reports that were common oik from the story point queries team the more we were looking at here was coordinated attacks. some of the same people used the same weapons same farmhouses same high same modus operandi or working together and not truly understand what was happening and who needed to be looked at as a whole that the daily thing else would be to add to my case each individual attack to individualize it which didn't tell the bigger story the story that was understood a play said quarters that was on arrested at army headquarters at the time that these were coordinated actions and indeed that some members of the security forces were taking part in these attacks and so we said to the c.t. that there were any way to properly understand this was to produce an overarching
6:39 pm
report they agreed they began to work on it but it was never completed it was never delivered. when we think the prospect of an overarching weybridge in thematic report was proved a senior level within the piers and i because. the conclusions would have been just to cause traffic it would have essentially made the case and in fact it would have amounted to a state recognition confirmation of collusion existed within the security forces in this particular sector in the conflict and i suppose politically for many many other reasons was just too long comfortable for many people for the british government not mount a pulling out of the overarching report are not really is just acceptable for the fall as. one of the fundamental elements of my. why i brought your report would
6:40 pm
have been for these questions beyond just how is it that a group of place officers. know that they can go back to a farm where there is a bomb in a car having been under surveillance and yet they know they can go back the following day. and the bomb goes off will drive them the confidence that they were not going to be apprehended there and then. over some lights a stage for me that is the biggest question that needs to be answered. desperate to get to the truth before some of the elderly bereaved relatives die steve morris is on and sequestered for put before the courts and. their lawyers challenge the haiti's failure to write the thematic report that they were promised . amongst the legal exhibits provided to the high court was a copy of on cadwallader is lethal allies the 1st time any such group is accepted
6:41 pm
as a legal exhibit in the northern courts. in july 27th the court delivered a stunning victory for the families ordering the chief constable to come up within weeks with except a bill independent fully resourced report to fulfill its e.t.s. promise. humiliated the chief constable the pain despite objections from the relieved families 11 of whom it passed away since the court case began. it's been a lone hard road for the families today it honest was just being very disappointing that the overarching report that would have pulled everton together and made all the connections and wasn't being completed to their.
6:42 pm
how important is for the. important frustrating yesterday was disappointing you have your ups and downs illegally in the story but i know the however frustration and obsession it is really there are people all over northern ireland who have lost families who are getting up this morning wondering if this is going to be a good day and they finally get some justice. so these days you never know what the courts are going to decide but there's no doubt about it in the 3 months since groundbreaking pictionary in the courts on the 28th of july 27th although the p.s. and i and the state were ordered by the judge to negotiate with us and come forward with a green route to our inquiry enter a horse we've just discovered that they have done nothing this reminds us of the
6:43 pm
nothing so if you're an individual or a citizen and you are ordered to do something by course you have to do it because somehow or if your police force and you're all hit by courts to something you can get away with doing nothing for at least 3 months and if they decide to appeal today which is possible it could delay everything right here some of our family members are also ill they might be here and am just see the report that they were a shooting and thought the sun on come into existence.
6:44 pm
it's seemed wrong. but old rules just don't hold. the world to get to shape out just to come out ahead and engage with equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart. just to look for common ground. the only i haven't is is the later system. at united knowing. when i was. there is no no don't you know you not. can if you had
6:45 pm
a way out all of them ok if there. was not a master plan a little like a battle they outweigh the. garage i don't know that i'd be able to get. some of that having. given people. who give the net a 1000000 come on what the how do not. assume alice are shown in now and not those they mean the whole corn. why do not let out on a year or so and i think just. violence that's also very important the smart. ass to. influence. the nature and they're already in the.
6:46 pm
structures to break this decided to show them extra. some function so i hope for the best to live in the uk. i i was issues the pivotal day for the families and their faith for justice for 2 reasons the 1st one the court has and the rare move ordered that they play should now take action on complete the report that was promised to all of the. families a 2nd issue is this an unprecedented move the court has asked for the place to provide often even avon's compelling and setting a way they have not given any notes or records as to why this decision was taken the reality is this decision has been made clear by the court is as irrational but only awful tame that justice was no longer delayed to the follies of going on and it just was done and the piece completed the support without any endless litigation
6:47 pm
. it's almost 4 years since we started this case and. i have watched. probably my missions on the gun pos way on there's other family members that are at the gun on serious pasta. for the following is their spin on emotional torture a shake a lot of logical torture. and it's near tame that. george hamilton relays that enough is enough on the day off the dinosaur are you see desert over to have a proper place in the house to be a furnace and just us thank you. ever. since fall we've identified says people who are involved in the murders of 120 past people who are members of the circle security forces we've named most of them there may be others we don't know of very few spend a day in jail now that's too many people over short few he has involved in 120
6:48 pm
matches in one geographic small geographical area to be explainable by the bad apples larry as far as the victims were concerned they were just collateral damage in what was a state systemic policy of collusion now as far as the families are concerned they have the right to truth and justice some want apology and acknowledgement others want day in court will support whatever they choose. well it's amazing how the truth comes art is charged greenwich c.t. that said it comes like go down to the door. and it has happened from time to time . some people have for a not conscious has taken them on they have revealed different material and as years have gone by of course the families have been interested in of trying to find
6:49 pm
out the truth of what happened and who was responsible but at the same time a lot of these killings haven't been. going to church at the authorities today and they had to care for information about the media for a collusion put in the modern comparison and to the sure bunch of collusion and their own salt it's not all that it's not ready for it. yet. on shushed and h.s. just at the only just. not let. us down for a cup now. expose them. for what they did. to action made on ahead tell. the tale has us more. they still got the police protection. and.
6:50 pm
i think it went to the very very top. i think it is. the water where all the taste of new thought was going on and gave the go ahead. on basically the artichoke it wouldn't be. doing a great job bodies ought. don't be getting caught and drop and also into problems. i suppose what still needs to be don't mistake getting the knowledge went over what actually help looks for the states in the period of the troubles to the period of the conflict take to protect themselves as a neutral arbiter at this stage that story doesn't stack up anymore the british were involved in the most killings they were involved with loyalist paramilitaries . murder i suppose my abiding hope would be that we
6:51 pm
can tell that story and that we can honor those who lost their lives to the fullest of acts of members of the security forces. me having the white clothes of filling stations and a few lonely street lamps among fields you climb the hills towards newton hamilton past the fuse forest beneath the stars. along that road a high bare pilgrim's track where sweeney fled before the bloodied heads gold beards and dogs eyes in a demon pack blazing out of the ground snapping and squealing. what lays ahead of you. the fair to road block. the red lamp
