Man arrested over McCartney murder
http://www.rte.ie/news/2005/0309/mccartneyr.html

Police in Northern Ireland have arrested a man in connection with the murder of Belfast father-of-two Robert McCartney.

Police said the man was arrested on suspicion of murder. He was detained after going to a Belfast police station, accompanied by his solicitor.

Two weeks ago a man voluntarily went to Musgrave Street Police Station in Belfast city centre in connection with the murder. He was later released unconditionally by the PSNI.

Speaking to reporters in Dublin, Mr Ahern said he had been shocked by the comment, but that things had to move forward in the peace process and there was a distinction between Sinn Féin and the IRA.

Okay--first, this conflicts with previous claims that no one had come forward with usable info. Second--thank you, Bertie, for FINALLY contradicting the RW spin.

1. Bertie and Fianna Fail seem to be playing...
a very dangerous game. We need some one to be a statesman and get this process moving again. Hopefully Ahern will stop playing politics and start working for Ireland. All of Ireland.
