Durkan: Scappaticci death cannot impede work of ‘Operation Kenova’

SDLP Policing Board member Mark H Durkan has said that the death of alleged British agent Freddie Scappaticci cannot be allowed to impede the work of Operation Kenova.

He said that the interim report of the operation should be published at the first opportunity and any prosecutions arising from it must be pursued.

Scappaticci was the highest-ranking British agent within the Provisional IRA, using the codename ‘Stakeknife’.

Said the Foyle MLA: “Our first thought is to remember the victims, the survivors and bereaved families.

“In doing so I want to acknowledge the comments of Jon Boucher, his continued commitment to justice and truth and echo his further appeal for those with information to step forward.

“We must give firm support to Operation Kenova and its investigation into the actions of state agencies and their agents, the IRA Internal Security Unit and those in the IRA who directed it.

“What is needed now is publication and prosecution – publication of the Kenova interim report and prosecution of those in the IRA and state agencies who were responsible for a regime of abduction, torture and murder.”
