McGurk's Bar Bombing: Post-Script

Fifteen civilians were killed in the McGurk's Bar bombing in Belfast in December 1971. Post-Script sets out new evidence that earlier investigations missed or buried.

It includes the discovery of a covert British military ambush operation in the vicinity of McGurk's Bar, and collusion between the Royal Ulster Constabulary and the British Army commander in charge of Belfast, who is named in the report.
