A former leading IRA man, who was a security
chief for X Factor boss, Simon Cowell has accused Sinn Fein of helping
to cover up the sexual abuse of "hundreds" of schoolboys by a
now-deceased priest.
Brendan Curran, a former Irish Army-trained sniper - who was
jailed aged 18 in 1973 for 15 years for attempting to murder a British
soldier - made the sensational claims as he announced his resignation
from Newry and Mourne District Council at a meeting last week.http://www.independent.ie/irish-news/politics/exprovo-accuses-sinn-fein-of-covering-up-priests-abuse-31085419.html
