at the papers over on the BBC News Channel, but now on BBC One it's | :00:00. | 3:59:59 | |
time former Assistant Chief Constable | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
says it's possible there was a cover-up of child sex abuse in the | :00:00. | :00:10. | |
1970s by the intelligence services Alan McQuillan was speaking | :00:11. | :00:14. | |
as pressure grows for the former Kincora Boys? home in | :00:15. | :00:20. | |
East Belfast to be included in a UK Our political correspondent | :00:21. | :00:26. | |
Martina Purdy reports. In 1980, the systematic sexual abuse | :00:27. | :00:41. | |
of young boys in this hair care home was revealed and three men, | :00:42. | :00:44. | |
including this man, William McGrath, were jailed. He was the housemaster | :00:45. | :00:52. | |
who had also founded a far right loyalist organisations some years | :00:53. | :00:58. | |
earlier. What made the revelations even more shocking were claims that | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
the RUC has been told of the use several years earlier and has failed | :01:02. | :01:06. | |
to act. Looking back, this former senior policeman thinks it is | :01:07. | :01:10. | |
possible that the abuse of children was covered up in exchange for | :01:11. | :01:14. | |
intelligence information. You have to remember the time that | :01:15. | :01:18. | |
this was going on in Belfast. Effectively, law and order had | :01:19. | :01:23. | |
broken down. There was undeclared martial law. The police had | :01:24. | :01:26. | |
collapsed as an organisation and were trying to get back on their | :01:27. | :01:32. | |
feet. The army were in the lead of security operations. There were lots | :01:33. | :01:35. | |
of strange security operations around Belfast at that time. In that | :01:36. | :01:42. | |
atmosphere, with the security forces and the government trying to get | :01:43. | :01:46. | |
control of a massive amount of murder and mayhem, quite frankly, | :01:47. | :01:51. | |
anything was possible. There are growing demands for the | :01:52. | :01:54. | |
Home Office to include Kincora in a national enquiry into child sex | :01:55. | :02:00. | |
Home Office to include Kincora in a The allegations there | :02:01. | :02:01. | |
serious about prominent little figures, not just in Northern | :02:02. | :02:07. | |

Ireland but also in Great Britain, have written to the Secretary of | :02:11. | :02:16. | |
State and tabled questions to the Home Secretary and I'm awaiting a | :02:17. | :02:19. | |
response. Remit every MP at Westminster needs | :02:20. | :02:23. | |
to put pressure on the government to ensure that Northern Ireland is and | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
to put pressure on the government to Kincora in particular is included | :02:28. | :02:32. | |
within that enquiry. This former boys home is already part of a | :02:33. | :02:33. | |
historic enquiry into abuse boys home is already part of a | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
appointed by the Deputy First Minister's office. | :02:39. | :02:39. | |
That enquiry is not considered sufficient to answer the questions | :02:40. | :02:42. | |
about politicians -- that sufficient to answer the questions | :02:43. | :02:45. | |
politicians and journalists have posed for decades | :02:46. | :02:47. | |
A former scout leader, GAA referee and part-time | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
firefighter has been jailed for eleven years for abusing children. | :02:52. | :02:54. | |
Patrick McQuillan from Moyle Avenue in Ballycastle was found guilty | :02:55. | :03:03. | |
The 62 year old carried out the abuse while serving | :03:04. | :03:09. | |
He was also placed on the Sex Offenders Register for life. | :03:10. | :03:16. | |
Fourteen suspected paedophiles have been arrested here as part of a | :03:17. | :03:19. | |
UK-wide operation targeting people accessing child abuse images online. | :03:20. | :03:24. | |
The PSNI say two children were identified as being at risk. | :03:25. | :03:29. | |
More than 650 suspects were arrested across the UK. | :03:30. | :03:35. | |
The family of a young UDR soldier murdered | :03:36. | :03:38. | |
near Castlederg 30 years ago say they've been left heartbroken after | :03:39. | :03:41. | |
tributes marking the anniversary of her death were destroyed. | :03:42. | :03:45. | |
20 year old Heather Kerrigan was killed alongside colleague | :03:46. | :03:49. | |
and friend Norman McKinley when the IRA attacked their foot patrol. | :03:50. | :03:52. | |
A broken poppy, the only visible families of the two soldiers killed | :03:53. | :04:13. | |
in 1984. The tributes were vandalised after a service on Monday | :04:14. | :04:16. | |
night marking the anniversary of their deaths will stop the family of | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
Heather Kerrigan said their grief has been compounded by IRA graffiti | :04:21. | :04:23. | |
Dort close to the scene of her murder. The PSNI had already taken | :04:24. | :04:33. | |
the sign away which said IRA to, UDA none. This cross is all that is | :04:34. | :04:40. | |
left. This is the spot where Heather Kerrigan and Norman McKinley were | :04:41. | :04:45. | |
killed 30 years ago. There were 80 UDR soldiers on patrol that morning, | :04:46. | :04:48. | |
including Heather's brother who was also injured. It's just as if it | :04:49. | :04:54. | |
happened yesterday. It brings the whole thing back. I am very sad and | :04:55. | :04:59. | |
depressed as to what is going on. We were starting to move on but when | :05:00. | :05:04. | |
we see this here, it's going to plunge us back years. | :05:05. | :05:09. | |
While the tributes are now gone, the family have a much loved daughter -- | :05:10. | :05:13. | |
the family of a much loved daughter and sister say her memory will | :05:14. | :05:15. | |
always remain. Plans for | :05:16. | :05:19. | |
a republican hunger strike parade in County Fermanagh have been described | :05:20. | :05:21. | |
as highly insensitive by unionists. The parade in Derrylin, | :05:22. | :05:23. | |
scheduled for the 3rd of August, commemorates the 1981 hunger strikes | :05:24. | :05:25. | |
in which 10 republicans died. Unionists say families whose | :05:26. | :05:28. | |
relatives were murdered by the IRA Sinn Fein say unionist sensitivities | :05:29. | :05:31. | |
were considered in deciding where People need to understand the very | :05:32. | :05:48. | |
high esteem in which the hunger strikers Bobby Sands Martin Hurston | :05:49. | :05:51. | |
and the others are held in by our community. They need to respect | :05:52. | :05:54. | |
that. We have had lectures from unionism, we are having lectures | :05:55. | :05:58. | |
from unionism today about tolerance and respect. Well, there needs to be | :05:59. | :06:03. | |
tolerance and respect given to Republicans as well. These people | :06:04. | :06:08. | |
were terrorists and murderers. They were not law-abiding citizens. The | :06:09. | :06:16. | |
way that those people -- I think that's the reality of it. These | :06:17. | :06:19. | |
people are being glorified irrespective of what they did. They | :06:20. | :06:20. | |
were murderers. Now tomorrow sees the start | :06:21. | :06:23. | |
of the Open at Royal Liverpool. Northern Ireland?s three major | :06:24. | :06:25. | |
champions Rory McIlroy, Graeme McDowell, and Darren Clarke | :06:26. | :06:27. | |

tournament is a serious business. Well, most of the time. Missed! | :06:40. | :06:48. | |
Darren Clarke and three Michael Roy were relaxed during their early | :06:49. | :06:51. | |
morning practice. There was a competitive match taking place | :06:52. | :06:54. | |
between two of Northern Ireland's major champions, with Michael Roy | :06:55. | :06:58. | |
taking the bragging rights on the last hole. Only ?20. It's not the | :06:59. | :07:10. | |
cash, the amount is irrelevant. It's got to do with a youngster with all | :07:11. | :07:14. | |
that money in the bank, getting 20 quid of my hard earned cash. Beating | :07:15. | :07:21. | |
and open champion. He's too young to gloat. It was good. We did this in | :07:22. | :07:30. | |
2011. We did. That worked out well for one of us. It's him this time. | :07:31. | :07:44. | |
Whenever I was first out on tour, I was testing myself and try to better | :07:45. | :07:49. | |
myself. We had a good game, a good bit of fun. Who is the smart money | :07:50. | :07:56. | |
on for The Open? Perhaps, don't bet against another winner from Northern | :07:57. | :08:00. | |
Ireland. All three of our major champions are upbeat about their | :08:01. | :08:01. | |
chances of another major moments. Staff at Belfast Zoo have announced | :08:02. | :08:06. | |
more details about a new arrival The baby was born four months ago | :08:07. | :08:08. | |
but the mother was so protective of it keepers have only just found | :08:09. | :08:13. | |
out it's a girl. Kee-bee-bee - which means little | :08:14. | :08:15. | |
lady in Swahili - is the second Now with the weather forecast | :08:16. | :08:18. | |
here's Cecilia Daly. Good evening. The forecast is set to | :08:19. | :08:32. | |
get warm and humid over the next couple of days. Tonight, by | :08:33. | :08:37. | |
comparison, will be fairly fresh. Lots of dry weather around, maybe | :08:38. | :08:43. | |
one or two showers lingering. There will be some sunshine to start with | :08:44. | :08:47. | |
tomorrow. A lot of fine and warm weather around through Thursday. A | :08:48. | :08:52. | |
pretty good day for heading to the beach. The maybe one or two showers | :08:53. | :08:58. | |
early in the morning but they will be extremely isolated. Otherwise, | :08:59. | :09:01. | |
increasing amounts of sunshine developing as the day goes on. A | :09:02. | :09:05. | |
ridge of high pressure over us tomorrow, so both Britain and the | :09:06. | :09:08. | |
Republic of Ireland will have a lot of fine, warm and sunny weather. | :09:09. | :09:13. | |
Average is reaching the high 20s across London and the south-east. | :09:14. | :09:16. | |
Very high temperatures for part of the Republic of Ireland. | :09:17. | :09:19. | |
Increasingly warm and muddy as the day goes on. Some cool, fresh | :09:20. | :09:24. | |
weather left over at the north-east of Scotland. Later in the day, mist | :09:25. | :09:29. | |
and low cloud may develop across the Irish Sea. Some of that may drift | :09:30. | :09:35. | |
onto parts of the County Down coast. Otherwise, the highest temperatures | :09:36. | :09:39. | |
over Fermanagh and Tyrone, possibly up to 24 degrees. On Friday, the | :09:40. | :09:44. | |
humidity is there with boundary showers in places. Also some sunny | :09:45. | :09:47. | |
gaps and when the sun comes out, temperatures will reach the low 20s. | :09:48. | :09:53. | |
It will be a sticky feel to the day. That boundary weather should move | :09:54. | :09:55. | |
away from us on Friday night, leaving warm and dry conditions. | :09:56. | :09:59. | |
