As family members of people killed in the McGurk s Bar bombing gathered on Friday December 4 to mark the 49
th anniversary of the massacre campaigners again challenged the PSNI chief constable over the RUC s disinformation strategy in the aftermath of the explosion, particularly their claim that “two of those killed were known IRA members”.
Relatives of the 15 people killed in the bombing in Belfast s New Lodge area in 1971 are demanding that PSNI chief constable Simon Byrne prove these claims and disclose the source of this false information.
