Photo-fits have been released publicly for the first time of a person – or people – seen driving two cars believed to be connected to bombings in Donegal and Cavan 50 years ago.
The Belturbet Bomb killed two teenagers – 16-year-old Patrick Stanley from Clara, Co Offaly, and 15 year-old Geraldine O’Reilly from Berturbet – on the night of December 28th 1972.
Eight others were injured in Belturbet after the bomb – contained in a red Ford Escort – exploded on the Main Street of the town.
Two other bombs exploded on the same night near Pettigo in County Donegal and in Clones, County Monaghan, and which saw three others injured.
Shortly afterwards, Patrick McCabe from Clones died while repairing a roof destroyed in the bombing.
Assistant Garda Commissioner, Michael McElgunn, is appealing to people to come forward.
