Loyalists gave RIRA guns to shoot cops
By Allison Morris
16/01/08
Loyalist drug dealers with links to a UDA faction supplied the weapons used by the Real IRA to shoot two police officers.
An unlikely partnership between the paramilitary groups dates back to 2003 when loyalists transported a massive haul of weapons for the Real IRA using routes used to bring drugs into the north.
It is understood the haul included 20 rocket launchers and 12 AK47 assault rifles as well as handguns and thousands of rounds of ammunition.
Handguns brought in by loyalists on behalf of the Real IRA were used in two recent attempts to murder policemen in counties and Derry.
The officer in Dungannon was shot twice with a handgun, whereas his colleague in Derry city was injured by a shotgun blast after a handgun jammed.
Sources say a further shipment of weapons procured from English arms dealers is planned.
That is said to include hand grenades and explosives for use by the Real IRA. Negotiations to have the shipment transported by the loyalist drug gang have already taken place.

the irish news have made some wild allegations, but the only evidence they cite is "sources",
if that is the case.... i too have sources that inform me that the editor of the irish news was responsible for the assassination of JFK.
its true because my un named sources, of which i have three, told me so.
Oh come on. How can you not expect us to take everything we read in the paper as gosple.
Sure journalists would never lie or make stuff up to sell papers.
Next thing you'lll be trying to tell us the headline "B29 Bomber found on moon" isn't true.
Or what about "Freddy Star ate my hamster"? How could you ever doube a journalist.
Everyone knows the press print nothing but the truth.
No if you'll excuse me I have a flying pig to catch as I go to my "Gullible Persons anonymous" meeting....
