Columba McVeigh: The teenager 'disappeared' by the IRA

from The BelTel

19-year-old Columba McVeigh was living in Dublin in 1975. The Tyrone man left his flat on Halloween night to buy some cigarettes and was never seen by his family and friends again. He had been kidnapped by the IRA, before being murdered and secretly buried. Why did the IRA murder Columba McVeigh, why did they hide his body and what role did MI5 play in his story? Ciarán Dunbar spoke to Columba’s brother – Oliver McVeigh. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
