PM Announces IRA 'Amnesty' Letters Inquiry

Written By Unknown on Kamis, 27 Februari 2014 | 22.12

David Cameron has announced an inquiry into so-called "amnesty" letters sent to IRA suspects which triggered a political crisis.

The letters, which effectively granted immunity from arrest, led to the collapse of the trial of John Downey, who was suspected of involvement in the 1982 Hyde Park bombing.

The Prime Minister said there would be a judge-led inquiry into the arrangement that led to nearly 200 letters being sent to Republican paramilitaries as part of the on-going peace process.

Northern Ireland First Minister Peter Robinson threatened to resign on Wednesday if Mr Cameron did not announce an inquiry saying he had been "kept in the dark" about a deal.

Some 187 letters have been sent out as part of the peace process - 38 have been sent since the coalition came to power in 2010 - although the applications were received before then, and the last was in December 2012.
