Still No Public Inquiry Into The Sallins Train Robbery

from Newstalk Daily

Fifty years ago, three men were convicted of carrying out the Sallins train robbery.  Their convictions were based on confessions that had been obtained under duress.  Two were later cleared, the third was pardoned, and all three received compensation.  But the State has never apologised, and there has never been a public inquiry into what happened. So, why not? Ciara is joined by contributor to The Irish Times, Patsy McGarry.
