Sinn Fein minister urges BBC to ‘learn lessons’ from Gerry Adams libel case - John O’Dowd said management at the corporation had knee-jerked in their reaction to Friday’s verdict at Dublin High Court.

The former Sinn Féin leader sued the BBC after a 2016 report, in which a source alleged Adams sanctioned the murder of a British agent.

A lawyer who helped the Omagh Bomb families win a civil action against the Real IRA says there still remains a final court case that Gerry Adams must face about his alleged role in the IRA.
