## Resource

Convicted criminal Cyril McGuinness, who died in his UK home as police arrived to quiz him in relation to his role in the kidnap and torture of Kevin Lunny, has been named as one of three men involved in the IRA's 1996 bombing of Manchester. According to the Manchester Evening News, police suspected McGuinness, known as 'Dublin Jimmy', of having a hands-on role in the bomb plot. Nicola talks to Niall Donald about the Irish Republican who would have faced two major court cases had he lived to stand in the dock. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
