Former Sinn Féin president Gerry Adams is to give evidence in his own defence in a civil action being brought against him in London by three IRA bomb victims.
The three men allege Mr Adams "acted with others in furtherance of a common design to bomb the British mainland" and was "directly responsible" in various roles within the IRA for decisions made to place devices in 1973 and 1996.
It heard the trial, which is expected to last seven days, will go ahead between February and June 2026.
another court case that somehow managed to slip under the MSM radar!
They have, however, given prominence to the veterans being repeatedly hounded through the courts for decades by the government!
