Stevens Report
From Free net encyclopedia
On April 16, 2003, Sir John Stevens released an interim version of the Stevens Report, the result of an official British government investigation. The report states that members of the security forces in Northern Ireland colluded with the Ulster Defence Association over the loyalist murders of many innocent people in the 1970s and 1980s, including the solicitor Pat Finucane in 1989. The government groups involved include the Force Research Unit of the British army and the Royal Ulster Constabulary (in particular its Special Branch).
