independent child sexual abuse inquiry. Join me now | :00:00. | :00:13. | |
that a man murdered on the outskirts of west Belfast last week | :00:14. | :00:19. | |
was killed by a paramilitary organisation. | :00:20. | :00:20. | |
Detectives investigating the murder of Joe Reilly | :00:21. | :00:22. | |
returned to the scene in Poleglass tonight. | :00:23. | :00:23. | |
of the gunmen running away from the scene | :00:24. | :00:26. | |
Construction of a, almost the minute it happened. Two officers, dressed | :00:27. | :00:45. | |
in similar clothing to the gunmen, retraced the route they took as they | :00:46. | :00:49. | |
ran away from the victim's home. It is vital if you saw the two gunmen, | :00:50. | :00:52. | |
described as wearing sports windcheater jackets with desserts | :00:53. | :00:57. | |
have weighed the front, one was wearing a Celtic scarf across his | :00:58. | :01:01. | |
face, with dark rimmed glasses. Joe Reilly has been singled out from two | :01:02. | :01:05. | |
other people who were in his home at the time. They were forced to lie | :01:06. | :01:10. | |
down on the kitchen for while the victim, Captain Oliver Morley, was | :01:11. | :01:13. | |
shot twice in the chest around 8pm last Thursday. -- by the victim, | :01:14. | :01:20. | |
kicked in the living room. Detectives were still trying to | :01:21. | :01:22. | |
establish a clear motive for the shootings at the time. Seven days | :01:23. | :01:27. | |
on, and after following up several lines of inquiry, a clearer picture | :01:28. | :01:30. | |
is starting to emerge and it involves both drugs and | :01:31. | :01:34. | |
paramilitaries. The motive I am looking that is in relation to drugs | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
and I believe that Joseph Riley has been murdered by a paramilitary | :01:38. | :01:41. | |
organisation. At this stage, it is too early to say which is involved. | :01:42. | :01:47. | |
A dissident paramilitary organisation? I don't want to get | :01:48. | :01:51. | |
into the specifics of the organisation I am looking at. I want | :01:52. | :02:00. | |
to identify the two suspect. I am not following is a Tyrion inquiry at | :02:01. | :02:03. | |
the moment. Police were asking motorists as they saw the two gunmen | :02:04. | :02:08. | |
leaving the scene of what detectives described as a cold-blooded summary | :02:09. | :02:10. | |
execution. The BBC has learned that a woman | :02:11. | :02:11. | |
was reported to police and charged in connection | :02:12. | :02:14. | |
with using abortion pills, The unprescribed purchase | :02:15. | :02:16. | |
and use of the drugs And there are warnings that women | :02:17. | :02:19. | |
are putting their health at risk by taking abortion | :02:20. | :02:24. | |
pills bought online. Buying and using abortion pills | :02:25. | :02:25. | |
is illegal But there is concern | :02:26. | :02:35. | |
about their availability online. We purchased drugs which arrived | :02:36. | :02:38. | |
from India to an address here. That is despite Northern Ireland's | :02:39. | :02:43. | |
strict abortion laws that prevent | :02:44. | :02:44. | |
the termination of any pregnancy, unless the mother's life | :02:45. | :02:58. | |
or health is at serious risk. The drugs were analysed for us | :02:59. | :03:01. | |
at Queens University. We can say with 100% surety, | :03:02. | :03:02. | |
it is that pharmaceutical compound. They found the pills were capable | :03:03. | :03:05. | |
of causing an abortion. But they are not licensed | :03:06. | :03:08. | |
for use in the UK. As with all drugs, there are risks | :03:09. | :03:10. | |
associated with this drug's use. Of particular concern | :03:11. | :03:13. | |
would be the heavy bleeding, which is a relatively | :03:14. | :03:15. | |
common adverse effect, and a number of women would require | :03:16. | :03:16. | |
a blood transfusion. If you're talking about heavy blood | :03:17. | :03:24. | |
loss as a result of using these, is that potentially | :03:25. | :03:27. | |
life-threatening? That means some women who use | :03:28. | :03:29. | |
the drugs will require treatment. We have learned that | :03:30. | :03:37. | |
at least one woman was reported to police | :03:38. | :03:39. | |
after she requested medical help. The Department of Health did issue | :03:40. | :03:46. | |
guidelines earlier this year that stated that medical staff | :03:47. | :03:48. | |
did have a duty to secure the apprehension, | :03:49. | :03:50. | |
prosecution or conviction of anybody involved | :03:51. | :03:55. | |
in an illegal termination. However, the guidance is not clear | :03:56. | :03:59. | |
because it also says that they do not have to pass on | :04:00. | :04:01. | |
that information if they have | :04:02. | :04:04. | |
a reasonable excuse not to. Whenever we want women to seek | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
medical advice, we have been telling them do not say | :04:09. | :04:10. | |
that they have taken the pills, because the medical professionals | :04:11. | :04:13. | |
are obliged to report this to the police and it is very clear | :04:14. | :04:17. | |
in the most recent Northern Ireland guidelines that there is a | :04:18. | :04:20. | |
"don't ask, don't tell" policy Campaigners have been | :04:21. | :04:23. | |
pushing for a relaxation but that remains a divisive | :04:24. | :04:27. | |
and sensitive issue at Stormont. and our politicians have been | :04:28. | :04:34. | |
holding against the tide of some people, like Amnesty International | :04:35. | :04:38. | |
and other groups, who are actively trying to quite | :04:39. | :04:40. | |
forcibly change the law. We made numerous requests to speak | :04:41. | :04:45. | |
to the Justice Minister, and she was due to give interviews | :04:46. | :04:49. | |
at an NSPCC event. Has the NSPCC invited | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
you here today? When it became clear that we wanted | :04:54. | :04:56. | |
to talk about abortion, however, her press officer | :04:57. | :04:59. | |
had us thrown out. Why is she not prepared to answer | :05:00. | :05:03. | |
any questions about an abortion? I am not answering any more | :05:04. | :05:08. | |
questions while you film, please. The Health Minister also refused | :05:09. | :05:16. | |
requests for interviews. But in a statement, | :05:17. | :05:19. | |
her department said their primary concern | :05:20. | :05:21. | |
for any woman was care. The DUP leader and First Minister | :05:22. | :05:28. | |
Arlene Foster says her party will continue to block attempts | :05:29. | :05:30. | |
to introduce same-sex marriage here. Mrs Foster said in an interview that | :05:31. | :05:33. | |
online abuse from some activists had made it less likely that | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
the DUP would change its stance, and her party would continue to use | :05:38. | :05:40. | |
an Assembly-blocking mechanism I've been hearing more | :05:41. | :05:45. | |
about Mrs Foster's remarks from our political | :05:46. | :05:49. | |
editor Mark Devenport. These latest comments came in one of | :05:50. | :06:00. | |
a series of interviews that Arlene Foster is giving in the run-up to | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
her party conference, which is this weekend. In an interview with the | :06:05. | :06:08. | |
press Association, she was asked about her party's position on Same | :06:09. | :06:12. | |
Sex Marriage Bill and whether they might, in the future, decide not to | :06:13. | :06:17. | |
use a petition of concern to block Private member 's' attempts to | :06:18. | :06:20. | |
change the law on that score. She indicated that the DUP remains | :06:21. | :06:24. | |
committed to a traditional definition of marriage and would use | :06:25. | :06:28. | |
the tool, the petition of concern, which allows it to veto any attempt | :06:29. | :06:33. | |
to change the law. She also said in that interview that she and her | :06:34. | :06:36. | |
colleagues have been subjected to what she called a vicious abuse | :06:37. | :06:40. | |
online by LGBT activists and she said that abuse would not change | :06:41. | :06:43. | |
your position, indeed she said it might actually harm the position of | :06:44. | :06:48. | |
the DUP in ensuring that they would not opt for any change on that | :06:49. | :06:50. | |
score. And is this a surprise? | :06:51. | :06:55. | |
I do not think so, really. If you look at the detail of their Assembly | :06:56. | :06:59. | |
manifesto, there was one line were they said they remained committed to | :07:00. | :07:03. | |
the definition of marriage and resisting any attempt to redefine | :07:04. | :07:07. | |
it. So I think it has always been pretty clear on that score that they | :07:08. | :07:11. | |
will continue to veto this. There has been talk about maybe limiting | :07:12. | :07:15. | |
the use of a petition of concern, but Arlene Foster says in the end of | :07:16. | :07:19. | |
leaders matter about which party feels very strongly, so why would | :07:20. | :07:20. | |
they not use that petition they can? Other political parties have | :07:21. | :07:23. | |
criticised Arlene Foster's comments. Alliance leader Naomi Long said | :07:24. | :07:25. | |
the DUP should not use the mechanism of a Petition of Concern to overrule | :07:26. | :07:28. | |
a democratic majority, and both she and Sinn Fein | :07:29. | :07:31. | |
said they were committed to bringing forward legislation | :07:32. | :07:33. | |
on marriage equality. The job losses announced | :07:34. | :07:39. | |
by the bike retailer Chain Reaction have provoked | :07:40. | :07:42. | |
a furious political reaction. The company is to cut | :07:43. | :07:44. | |
around 300 jobs It was locally-owned | :07:45. | :07:46. | |
until earlier this year when English firm Wiggle bought it | :07:47. | :07:50. | |
for more than ?70 million. The former finance minister | :07:51. | :07:55. | |
Sammy Wilson has accused the new owners of blatant | :07:56. | :07:57. | |
and cynical asset stripping. This report from our economics | :07:58. | :08:01. | |
and business editor, John Campbell. It is this sort of work which will | :08:02. | :08:19. | |
no longer be done locally. Wiggle has spent millions on a huge new | :08:20. | :08:22. | |
warehouse in the centre of England so it makes commercial sense to hold | :08:23. | :08:27. | |
Dutch logistics in the one place but that does not cut much ice with the | :08:28. | :08:30. | |
East Antrim MP. This is not because the company of uncompetitive. It is | :08:31. | :08:34. | |
simply because a bigger company bought out a competitor, wanted to | :08:35. | :08:39. | |
strip its assets, has spare capacity in other parts of its organisation | :08:40. | :08:45. | |
and intends to move to that spare capacity. The South Antrim MP met | :08:46. | :08:51. | |
the company today. He says he can understand from other explanations | :08:52. | :08:55. | |
for the cuts but he believes misleading language was used at the | :08:56. | :08:59. | |
time of the takeover. The one worry when we heard about the merger was | :09:00. | :09:02. | |
that there might be job lay-offs, things might get moved to another | :09:03. | :09:06. | |
location. So I raised it at the time and we got nearly cast iron | :09:07. | :09:12. | |
assurances that no, they were here forever and a day, this was their | :09:13. | :09:15. | |
home, where they would be employing people in the future. But you always | :09:16. | :09:19. | |
that with a doubt and know the absolute worst has happened and we | :09:20. | :09:22. | |
have got to fight really hard to make sure that jobs stay here, that | :09:23. | :09:26. | |
we build the business here and we hope that in size and an answer. | :09:27. | :09:33. | |
Chain Reaction's main reaction sets on the edge of this small village, | :09:34. | :09:36. | |
where there is less focus on political rhetoric and more concern | :09:37. | :09:39. | |
about the wider economic impact. Some of the warehouse workers live | :09:40. | :09:44. | |
nearby and staff coming to and from work are regular customers at the | :09:45. | :09:48. | |
village shop. Nobody here wanted to talk today, but they are worried | :09:49. | :09:53. | |
about what it will mean for trade. Nobody from the company was | :09:54. | :09:57. | |
available to speak to the media today, but they have again | :09:58. | :10:00. | |
emphasised they will be retaining around 300 jobs in Northern Ireland, | :10:01. | :10:04. | |
and the company have again said they do need to centralise warehousing | :10:05. | :10:08. | |
and Wolverhampton if they are going to keep this business competitive in | :10:09. | :10:10. | |
what is a very tough field. as one of Northern Ireland's biggest | :10:11. | :10:12. | |
employers, Bombardier, is to bring forward a wave | :10:13. | :10:15. | |
of redundancies which had been | :10:16. | :10:17. | |
announced for next year. The aerospace company said | :10:18. | :10:20. | |
in February it was axing the posts | :10:21. | :10:21. | |
over two years but it now aims to shed all 1,080 | :10:22. | :10:24. | |
posts "within the next few months". The company says the move | :10:25. | :10:29. | |
will help reduce costs The Secretary of State James | :10:30. | :10:31. | |
Brokenshire says he won't consider funding Troubles-related inquests | :10:32. | :10:45. | |
until there is reform of the system. Sinn Fein has repeatedly called | :10:46. | :10:48. | |
on the government to provide ?10 million to investigate | :10:49. | :10:50. | |
80 deaths, after the DUP vetoed | :10:51. | :10:51. | |
the Executive from doing so. In an interview for the View | :10:52. | :10:54. | |
tonight, Mr Brokenshire questioned the effectiveness | :10:55. | :10:56. | |
of the current inquest system. I wanted to see that this is done | :10:57. | :11:07. | |
properly, to get that sense of answers being given to the families, | :11:08. | :11:12. | |
to the victims in this way. It is about the fact that I think we have | :11:13. | :11:15. | |
a system that does not work effectively to be able to do that, | :11:16. | :11:19. | |
because of the number of inquests that can be processed, and indeed | :11:20. | :11:23. | |
the need for reform as to how we are able to manage the inquest system, | :11:24. | :11:27. | |
which the lord Chief Justice himself referred to. | :11:28. | :11:29. | |
Well, for more about what's on The View tonight, | :11:30. | :11:31. | |
Yes, Tara, that's just the start of it - we'll hear that, | :11:32. | :11:38. | |
And I will also be asking about his refusal to release funds to fund | :11:39. | :11:47. | |
investigations into paramilitary. Johnny straight after the news. | :11:48. | :11:50. | |
The weather latest now, with Geoff Maskell. | :11:51. | :11:54. | |
We have had quite a cloudy day today, up until this point. Through | :11:55. | :12:00. | |
this evening and overnight, this band of rain since slowly size, | :12:01. | :12:03. | |
bringing out the clouds a little bit. It means we will see some | :12:04. | :12:09. | |
clearer skies, helping the temperatures to drop away. A mist | :12:10. | :12:12. | |
and fog to begin the day tomorrow, but in many places quite a bright | :12:13. | :12:17. | |
start. What happens as we go through the day is that that cloud and rain | :12:18. | :12:20. | |
that are sanctified through the evening will return, so we will see | :12:21. | :12:23. | |
some cloudier skies encroaching as we go through the afternoon and then | :12:24. | :12:27. | |
that rain will follow on. The rain is always fragmenting stop as we | :12:28. | :12:32. | |
take a wider view, you can see exactly what is going on. What the | :12:33. | :12:35. | |
big area of high settling down our weather quite nicely. The breeze | :12:36. | :12:39. | |
running around the top of that. Through the day, that rate rises up | :12:40. | :12:43. | |
and this weekend that high pressure does give us some protection, but we | :12:44. | :12:46. | |
are always on the edge of it, always on the border with a certain friend | :12:47. | :12:50. | |
of the day. On Friday night, a bit of mist forming as we go into the | :12:51. | :12:54. | |
early hours of Saturday morning. The daylight hours on Saturday, though, | :12:55. | :13:03. | |
are likely to stay mostly dry for many places. Temperatures in double | :13:04. | :13:07. | |
figures, 1230 degrees today. On Sunday, that the risk of rain | :13:08. | :13:10. | |
increases as the front just edges ever closer to us. Plenty of cloud, | :13:11. | :13:14. | |
but those temperatures quite reasonable. As we look towards the | :13:15. | :13:18. | |
Halloween weekend itself, then mostly dry through Monday. If a | :13:19. | :13:21. | |
little bit cloudy. You should be OK for trick-or-treating. | :13:22. | :13:22. | |
