Hello and welcome to BBC Newsline. Comments by the former Secretary of | :00:00. | :00:15. | |
State Peter Hain suggesting soldiers responsible for the killing of | :00:16. | :00:18. | |
civilians on Bloody Sunday should not be prosecuted have been | :00:19. | :00:20. | |
criticised by Sinn Fein as "ill-judged". The DUP says if it | :00:21. | :00:23. | |
emerges terrorists are not being sought for prosecution, it would be | :00:24. | :00:26. | |
unthinkable the courts would pursue killings related to the state. | :00:27. | :00:34. | |
Martin Cassidy reports. Again, Peter Hain finds himself | :00:35. | :00:38. | |
embroiled in Northern Ireland affairs. The former Secretary of | :00:39. | :00:43. | |
State said soldiers involved in the Bloody Sunday killings should not be | :00:44. | :00:48. | |
prosecuted. This column -- follows the disclosure that almost 200 | :00:49. | :00:51. | |
paramilitary suspects were sent letters assuring them what they were | :00:52. | :00:56. | |
not being sought by police. He is now says there should be an | :00:57. | :01:00. | |
evenhanded approach to members of the British security forces as well. | :01:01. | :01:05. | |
If you have addressed the question of former terrorists involved in | :01:06. | :01:11. | |
activity then it should apply evenhandedly across the board to | :01:12. | :01:13. | |
members of the British security forces as well. | :01:14. | :01:19. | |
Sinn Fein says that given the ongoing police investigation into | :01:20. | :01:22. | |
Bloody Sunday, the comments are ill judged and ill timed. | :01:23. | :01:29. | |
He should have reflected the legal reality and that is the | :01:30. | :01:33. | |
investigation into what happened have to be pursued by the PSN I. We | :01:34. | :01:40. | |
are clear that there should be no amnesty for anyone and no one should | :01:41. | :01:44. | |
be immune from prosecution if they have broken the law. If we were in a | :01:45. | :01:50. | |
situation where it became evident that people involved in paramilitary | :01:51. | :01:55. | |
terrorist activity were not being pursued for prosecution, it would be | :01:56. | :01:58. | |
absolutely unthinkable that the courts would pursue those who were | :01:59. | :02:05. | |
involved in killings related to the state. | :02:06. | :02:10. | |
The justice minister says that by saying crimes committed during the | :02:11. | :02:13. | |
troubles should not be investigated, Peter Hain's comments | :02:14. | :02:15. | |
go against the rule of law. In Dublin, the convicted drug dealer | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
John Gilligan remains in a stable condition in hospital after he was | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
shot in the west of the city last night. He was shot six times by two | :02:25. | :02:30. | |
masked gunmen. Mr Gilligan had been accused of murdering the journalist | :02:31. | :02:33. | |
Veronica Guerin in 1996 but was later acquitted. From Dublin, Shane | :02:34. | :02:39. | |
Harrison reports. John Gilligan, perhaps the | :02:40. | :02:43. | |
Republicans most notorious criminal, was released last October | :02:44. | :02:49. | |
after serving -- server serving 17 years but within two months an | :02:50. | :02:52. | |
attempt was laid -- made on his life. The would-be victim played | :02:53. | :03:01. | |
down the incident. No problem whatsoever. | :03:02. | :03:05. | |
But last night he was not so lucky. He went to his brother 's house and | :03:06. | :03:12. | |
two gun men forced their way into the home and fired several shots at | :03:13. | :03:16. | |
him while he was in the living room. He was hit in the chest, a hip, leg | :03:17. | :03:22. | |
and stomach but the injuries were not life-threatening. He was taken | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
to a nearby hospital where he is stable. The gunmen escaped in a | :03:28. | :03:32. | |
silver coloured 4-wheel drive. He had warnings that his life was in | :03:33. | :03:36. | |
danger. Anyone with information is asked to come forward. | :03:37. | :03:40. | |
Golf and Rory McIlroy is one shot in the lead in the final round of the | :03:41. | :03:44. | |

three holes left to play. Now news of a series we're bringing | :03:48. | :03:52. | |
