Britain’s intelligence services may have masterminded an IRA human bomb strategy which killed soldiers and civilians in Northern Ireland in 1990, a lobby group claimed today.
The British Irish Rights Watch (BIRW) said counter-terrorism agencies may have been behind the lethal strategy, which saw six soldiers and one civilian die after civilians linked to the security forces were made to drive explosives into Army facilities. An official report from BIRW said: “It is known that at least two security force agents were involved in these bombings and allegations have been made that the human bomb strategy was the brainchild of British intelligence. “Questions arise as to whether the RUC, An Garda Siochana and the army’s Force Research Unit had prior and/or subsequent intelligence about the bombings.
